Missions
Our Missionary Groups embody the heart of our church's mission to live lives for God, love without limits, and serve with purpose. For over 85 years, these dedicated groups of women and men have fostered Christian mission responsibilities through religious and social activities, reaching into homes and communities to provide comfort, support, and practical assistance to those in need. With prayer, fellowship, and service, our circles do the work of the church: spreading both the message and the love of God.
