Missions
Jim Elliot - "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."
John Piper - "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him."
Nate Saint - "The purpose of missions is not to evangelize the world...the purpose is to plant the church where it does not exist so it can evangelize the world."
Missions Goals
We want to be involved locally as much as we are globally.
We want to understand that we are missionaries in every setting, every second of every day of our lives.
We want every student to go on a short-term mission trip.
We want families to go on a short-term mission trip together.
We want students after graduating high school to consider giving up a year to be a missionary for that year.
