FAITH COMMITMENT OFFERING
The term GLOBAL encompasses who we are and what we do everywhere in the world—both locally and to the ends of the earth. In order to make Christ known to everyone in every place, we continue to grow in the areas of praying, giving, and going in God’s global mission.
As part of the Global Impact Celebration, we invite you to make a prayerful commitment to God’s global work over the next 12 months.
