Serving ....
Take a look
beyond yourself .. what do you see?
-
poor and wounded people in our
own counties in need of a simple meal...clothes...and even shelter.
-
a generation who is passionate
to know, serve and follow Jesus, but are stuck not knowing how to get
started.
-
a world that has not experienced
the loving revolution of the genuine Christ.
The vision of the Springs Missions lies in this
scripture verse...Acts 1:8 "But you will receive power when the Holy
Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in
all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
Here is what
this means for how we see the world:
Jerusalem: Local area mission work
Judea: Our geographic region (North GA and Chattanooga
area) missions.
Samaria: Our country mission involvement and to people
we're "not comfortable" with.
Ends of the Earth: Outside our country.
