Overview
Mission
Nursing home ministry monthly outreach to the elderly nursing home where the church holds services to give encouragement, sing songs of praise, and preach the message of the gospel to them. International missions annual mission trips where the church performs street ministries, mimes, and songs of praise. The church also extends aid to impoverished neighborhoods and provides assistance to areas devastated by typhoons. Additionally, the church holds outreaches to prisons to hold special events where mimes and songs of praise are performed and the message of the gospel is preached. Homeless outreach the church seeks to provide ministry to the homeless by giving gloves, scarves, socks, and other clothing articles as seasons change. The church takes time to encourage, speak, and pray with them. Retreats there are two retreats every year for our members to have a time of prayer and worship, and to hear the word through preaching so that they may have a time of solitude away from the busynes
