LOCAL MISSIONS – OUTREACH
Serving others is a hallmark of Christianity. The Bible, and especially the New Testament, emphasizes Jesus Christ’s dedicated service to others and encourages His followers to do likewise. Jesus taught disciples to “love the Lord thy God” and to “Love thy neighbor as thyself” (Matthew 22:37, 39). At Camp we serve others in our community, in our nation and the world at large, with cheerful hearts. Bring the spiritual gifts God has given you and use it to further the Gospel with us.
Contact Howard Varnam @910-619-2962 or Barbara Varnam @910-619-5504 for more information on how to help our Outreach team!
