MISSIONARY MINISTRY
“Go therefore and make disciples
of all the Nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy spirit, teaching them to
observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I
am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew
28:19-20 KJV
The Missionary Ministry seeks to share the love of Christ
and His Word, assisting members, the neighborhood, the city
and the world who are hurting and in need. We supply food,
using the SHARE program and the National Council of Church’s
food bank and clothes for many in need. Each 5th Saturday,
we serve dinner at Shepherd Cove Shelter and enjoy fellowship
with the clients.
In 1999 the door was opened for two of our missionaries to
travel to Africa with Shalom Outreach. The fire of evangelism
fueled by a love for our African brothers and sisters has
resulted in missionaries having gone to Uganda and/or South
Africa each year since. Shalom’s yearly Mission Conference
fans the fires of evangelism and we have attended since 2000.
We have taken the ‘mobile kitchen’ to the homeless
on the streets of Washington, DC on many winter Saturday’s
providing them with warm food, toiletries, and warm clothing
items. Kind words and loving spirits have opened the door
for sharing God’s word to many far and near.
Activities include Clothes Closets to provide clothes for
the needy, SHARE Food Bank Program (Purchase $40 worth of
groceries for just $18.00 and two (2) hours of community service),
Thanksgiving and Christmas Baskets to the needy.
