Missions
Our church is missions minded. We seek to learn what missions are, how to
support our missionaries, and how to do missions. We may not be called
to Africa, or even North Dakota, but that doesn't let us off the hook. There
are no exceptions to the Great Commission. We are all called to tell others about
Jesus and to serve in His name, to meet the physical, emotional and
spiritual needs of those we see every day.
Opportunities we had this past year here at ABC: Vacation Bible School, Impact
Virginia, Youth Evangelism Conference, Armenian backpacks project, Operation Christmas
Child, witnessing bracelets, candy gifts to Warrenton Overlook, mittens and gloves,
the angel tree families, Christmas in August, Christmas shoeboxes, K Mart gift wrapping,
coat drive, rice bowls for world hunger, Women of Faith, summer camps, Amissville
community Christmas boxes, March for Life, Relay for Life, Culpeper Crisis Pregnancy
Center, to mention a few.
We can also invite friends and neighbors to church functions. We can show by how
we live that we serve a different master. We can be ready to tell others about Him.
That, in essence, is missions.
