MISSIONS & OUTREACH

OUR GOAL

We want to go deep with a few missions. We desire to give money, but also time, labor, encouragement, prayer, etc. to each of our missions (missionaries).

LOCAL

Manheim Central & Warwick School districts.

REGIONAL

Lancaster County

NATIONAL/GLOBAL

Pennsylvania, the United States, & the World

We support 10 missions in these 4 areas - 3 local; 3 regional; 3 national/global; 1 missionary family. We believe we can do more kingdom work when we are focused on a few missions.

EXPLORE

Research, identify, and choose missions that align with our church's mission, core values, and vision.

EDUCATE

Ensure that the church is aware of the purpose of missions and the missions we engage.

EQUIP

Train the church to have a Biblical view of missions and how to be involved in missions.

ENGAGE

Help the church get invovled and provide help and support to people deployed on mission.

OUR CRITERIA

There are thousands of good missions and missionaries out there. We cannot support and serve them all. Therefore, we must do the hard work of choosing a few to invest in. We want to ensure that our missions align with our church's mission, vision, and core values. When choosing and evaluating missions we use five criteria that are important to us:

Proclaims the Gospel

Provides Opportunities for Non-Financial Support/Involvement

Practices Financial Transparency & Good Stewardship

Purposeful in Helping the Local Church Further Its Mission

Preferably Reformed in Doctrine
