| MISSION |
“We reach out in mission locally and globally.” Our mission includes both
evangelism (inviting people to trust in the good news of Jesus Christ) and
service (joining Christ in creating a world of justice and peace). Presbyterians
have begun more mission projects in more countries than many other
denominations. But today we understand mission to be taking place in our own
neighborhoods and by church members in their daily lives. We continue to
support mission on six continents, often as ecumenical partners. Yet there is a
growing awareness that the opportunity to do mission is at everyone’s
fingertips. We are concerned about hunger, disease, greed, violence, and
pollution, as well as salvation. Predestination is often associated with
Presbyterian thinking. For us, it is not a fatalistic resignation, but a confident
belief that God is in final control. With an urgency born of this hope, God calls
us to be the church acting in the world for the sake of his lost and fearful
children.
