Our purpose for outreach is not just meeting needs in the community, it is “establishing a foundation for evangelism in a person’s life.”  Our chief goal is to win people to Christ by discovering the key to his or her heart…the most likely place to start is with the person’s felt needs.” Church outreach is also a means to introduce people in the community to the church by making them aware of God’s love for them.  Because the spiritual, material, physical, financial emotional, intellectual and social needs of people in the community are so diverse, several different types of outreach programs are necessary. It is our aim to meet those needs.
