"Reach
Ministries" are what we call the outreach and evangelism
emphasis of our church. Reach ministries involve Helps (with cars,
houses, odd jobs, etc.), Engaging People (the poor, the sick, the
imprisoned, the lonely), and Giving A Timely Hand Up (benevolence
ministries of all kinds). |
At Grace Community we are committed to being an outward focused, externally
concerned, community engaged family of faith. This is written into
the DNA code of what the New Testament calls the church, and we
hope to grow up into that calling more each day! We take our marching
orders in this area from James 1:27 which says, “Real religion,
the kind that passes muster before God the Father, is this: Reach
out to the homeless and loveless in their plight, and guard against
corruption from the godless world.” (The Message) |
