When
Jesus said, ”Go into all the world and make disciples,” he was not talking to
a select few. He was actually commissioning every believer throughout history
to participate in bringing the good news of the Kingdom to every community on
earth. This “Great Commission” was not given as an optional activity or a suggestion.
It was Jesus’ final words to us before He left the earth. Today, He sits at
the right hand of the Father watching and waiting until the day He returns.
What is He waiting for? In Matthew, Jesus told us that “this gospel of the
kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations,
and then the end will come.” We hope to activate every believer in the task
of reaching the world – starting in our own city and extending to the far
corners of the earth. How can you participate in the task of reaching the
world? PRAY - Join us as we

Participate in outreaches to those God has brought to our doorstep right here
in Christchurch Pray
for the nations "...for My house will be called a house of prayer for
all nations." Throughout
our auditorium, you will see the flags of many nations. However, the flags do
not serve merely as decorations. They hang there to remind us that Jesus
Christ died to save all people. These flags represent our desire to see every
nation transformed by the Gospel. They remind us that we have been left with
a mission — to tell all people, everywhere the good news of Jesus Christ! As
a church, we participate in the Great Commission through giving to
missionaries, going on mission trips, reaching out to our community, and
praying for the nations. Each month we will highlight a nation represented by
one of the flags in our sanctuary including country facts and major prayer
points. Let’s join together through prayer and ask God to make Himself known
among the nations! Community
Outreach Mission Trips You will see God at work not only around
you but also in you! God has called each of us to live by faith – to do
things that can only be accomplished with the help of the Holy Spirit and
each other. Each one of us have been called to a life-long “mission” journey
– that doesn’t end or begin with a single mission trip. We each must follow
Christ in our “mission” journey called life by reaching out and loving those
with whom we come in contact daily. Mission trips will help you grow
spiritually and equip you to walk out journey by faith. Mission trips allow
you the unique opportunity to walk closely with other Christians and
accomplish something great for God – together. One thing is guaranteed, if
you choose to go, your life and your perspective will never be the same
again! |
