MISSION IS THE CHURCH IN ACTION
As those who have received the love of Jesus Christ, it’s our privilege, purpose and passion to share the good news of salvation to those who don’t know Him. Our heart for mission begins with our friends & family, extends to our community and reaches the nations. We live by “Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember I am with you always.”
Lighthouse Church is actively involved in supporting these ministries through the faithful giving of our members, ongoing prayer support and by visiting these regions as the Lord leads us.
