Building Bridges of Hope Within the Community

Extreme Living Hope

We value the purpose of God which is to reach people with the love and the hope of Jesus Christ. That's why the missions' ministry of Extreme Living Hope exists. This ministry seeks to find ways to "build bridges of Living Hope" to our community by serving, and demonstrating God's love and goodness. And it provides vision and communication regarding our outreach to our nation and our world.
 
Local
We believe that demonstrating God's love in practical ways by offering to do some humble act of service with no strings attached makes for an audience that is ready to hear more specifics about God's love through Jesus Christ. Extreme Living Hope will sponsor various projects and events throughout the year to serve and share hope with our community.
 
Global
Beyond our own community and region Extreme Living Hope is committed to reach our world with practical expressions of the love of Jesus. Our strategy includes financial and prayer support for missionaries doing church work on the field, short term mission trips and someday sending our missionaries from our church family to work on the field.
