Invitation to Us
Sharing the Good News of Jesus
Demonstratd in the Love of Christ
Compassion
The love of Christ in the context of sin, pain and need. We respond to need in loving, life-giving ways.
Jesus was filled with compassion. He reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!”
Mark 1:41
Justice
The love of Christ in the context of oppressive systems, corrupt structures, and hurtful relationships. We seek to transform unjust systems and unhealthy relationships, with love.
“Let any of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first.”
John 8:7–9
Evangelism
The love of Christ in the context of lies, doubt, and accusations. We speak the truth in love so that all can know and share the gospel with understanding.
“Jesus said, ‘If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.’”
John 8:31
Advising with Faith, Strategy, and Care
Mission Resource Advisory
Our Mission Resource Advisory (MRA) is a committee of advisors who prayerfully discern the mission strategy and priorities of The Peoples Church. From this prayerful and strategic perspective, they carefully consider how mission resources are shared with our partners.
The MRA examines each application for support from our mission partners and submits their recommendations to the Board of Directors for approval. Members of the MRA are appointed based upon their experience and commitment to global mission and represent diverse cultural perspectives and giftings.
