PRAY. SEND. GO.

Outreach isn’t just someone else’s job—the missionary or the church staff member. It’s everyone’s job to follow Jesus to the ends of the earth by making disciples. Pray for a team, help send someone else through financial support, or join a short term trip. Everyone can join God’s mission to the world.

Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. | Mark 16:15
