causes we believe in


Jesus said he had come "to preach the good news to the poor, to proclaim freedom for the prisoners,... to release the oppressed" (Luke 4:14-21).


We are learning that proclaiming the gospel means much more than speaking words in hopes that people will hear and respond to the good news of salvation by faith in Christ -- that's certainly part of it -- but that it must include tangible compassion for the sick, poor and disadvantaged, and efforts to right wrongs in the name of justice.


Love, when demonstrated to the world through acts of kindness, compassion and justice, is revolutionary;  and when we become agents of it, we make credible the message of a Savior who transforms men, women and children for eternity!


These are some of the causes we believe in.

  • MISSION: GUATEMALA (kairos ministries)

    In January 2014, we sent our first team on a medical mission to the mountain villages near Chiquimula, Guatemala.  We returned in November 2016, 2018 & 2023. Over four trips, more than 40 members of Faith Community have participated in this mission.
