Our Missions Ministry

 

By far the single most significant speech in human history – the final earthly words spoken by Jesus – includes the most compact expression of the Christian mission ever spoken. Its powerful declaration continues to reverberate through the corridors of time like peals of rolling thunder:

"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."
Matthew 28:18-20

 

The Great Commission sets the parameters of our service to Him. It's a call for every member of God's family. And it is GREAT. We will have other life tasks, but our primary work is to fulfill the Great Commission – in our home, in our personal life, in our neighborhood, in our workplace, in our community ... and beyond. We have been entrusted to share the Good News of Christ! This is a privilege each of us shares, as well as a responsibility we must take personally.

At Fostoria, we have been blessed with many diverse ministries which enable us to address all three strands of the Great Commission... evangelism (having a passion for the lost), discipleship (spiritual multiplication), and reaching out to the poor. We recognize that the church, having come to Christ, is to now to do the work of Christ. God only asks that we make ourselves available to Him.

We're excited about the missions and evangelism ministries we have in place to share the love of Christ through people just like you – people who want to make an eternal difference with their lives.

The opportunities to serve are limitless!

We encourage you to prayerfully consider how God can use you.
