WHY TAKE MISSION SUNDAY SERIOUS? Because we believe that people everywhere have the right to know about Jesus Christ, in whom we can find the answers to the deepest questions of the human heart …… about God – human destiny ….. life …… death …. Truth. As Christians we want to share with others the goods we possess starting with the gift of our faith.
