MISSIONS
Acts 1:8 – “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit
comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem,
and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Valley’s Mission Efforts
POWER: This is what we get! Not from us, but from the Holy Spirit, as we submit to Christ.
WITNESSES: This is who we are! We share Jesus without slamming a Bible over someone’s head.
JERUSALEM: This is our local community and specifically our own individual “oikos.”
JUDEA: This is our surrounding region in our state.
SAMARIA: This is across our own nation and in the border countries of Mexico and Canada.
ENDS OF THE EARTH: This is our call to the entire world!
To address each of these geographical areas, Valley supports several mission organizations either on a monthly or as needed basis for various projects:
Our Giving to Missions:
Every week, 10% of what we receive for our tithes and offerings goes to our Mission Fund. We balance our mission support: 50% goes to our long-term missionary partners and 50% for rapid response projects. In this way, we can support a variety of missions and as good stewards (1 Pt. 4:7-11) put our resources to work in order to reach people for Jesus!
