MISSIONS PHILOSOPHY

At Community Bible Church it is our goal to fulfill the mandate given to us by the Lord Jesus Christ to make disciples of all the nations. That is, as ambassadors of the kingdom of God, we want to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ to a dying world. We believe that God has chosen the Church as the vehicle by which this Good News will be proclaimed in our day.

 Therefore, we seek to accomplish this task in the following ways: 

  1. We seek to be a Church that will equip the Saints so that they will be able to communicate clearly the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those whom they come into contact with on a regular basis. We want to be active in reaching out to our local community for Jesus Christ.
  2. We seek to be a Church that will support missionary families who desire to offer themselves as full-time missionaries for the Lord Jesus Christ. Support would include financial assistance as well as logistical support. This support will include both domestic and international missionaries.
  3. We seek to be a Church that will develop and train missionaries within our own congregation and send them to the missionary field as God leads.
  4. We seek to be a Church that will support missionary efforts through the participation of Short-Term Missionary trips.
  5. We seek to be a Church that will participate, as God leads, in the planting of local Churches.
