Striving to be doers of the word.
We are a church that loves to study scripture. We also want to be a church that lives out what we learn from the word. We don’t want to be known as only being hearers of the word. We want to be known as doers of the word.
“Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don’t act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like.” James 1:22-24 The Message
We are grateful to have a partnership with Better Together, an organization dedicated to preventing the separation of families. Better Together strives to keep families intact, ensuring children stay out of foster care by offering them a temporary, nurturing home and assisting their parents in building a better life. They focus on helping families secure employment, recognizing that job loss often underlies many serious issues, such as child neglect. Through the Better Jobs initiative, they collaborate with churches nationwide to connect individuals with opportunities for stability, hope, and success.
We are enthusiastic about our collaboration with Better Together, engaging in various ways to support their mission. Some of our families actively contribute by providing short-term care for children. As a church, we partner with Better Together to organize Parents' Night Out events throughout the year. Additionally, we plan to host biannual job fairs. We aspire for our partnership with Better Together to make a significant impact in keeping families together and sharing the good news of Christ with them.
