Missions

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations

Matthew 28:19

Missions can look diffeent for everyone. For those of us in East Petersburg Mennonite Church, it means our mission field is our homes, our neighborhoods, our workplaces and our city. As the Lord leads, people can be sent out farther to share God's love with those in other areas of the United States and other countries. We are all called to be the light and we must listen to the Holy Spirit on how and where He wants us to shine.
