Local Events

As a church body, very few things are more inspiring than coming together to help others in need in the local area and sharing the message that no pit is so deep that God is not deeper still. Involving all ages brings the generations together. And incorporating children and their parents in local missions events can serve to instill even in the early years the importance of outreach and evangelism. Local mission events are also an excellent springboard to national and international experiences.

Below are some examples of the types of local mission events that MissionForce can assist your church to include and implement in your overall Missions Strategy:

• Community Work Projects
• Men's Ministry Outreach
• Prison Ministry
• Children's Fall Festival
• Partnerships with Local Ministries
• VBS
• Food Drives
• Street Evangelism
• Outdoor Events/Carnivals

"I traveled every summer of Jr. High and High school with Connie to do mission work throughout the United States. The mission trips I was involved in were some of the most influential experiences of my life, teaching me as a young Christian the importance of service, evangelism, and accountability. They helped me to become mission-minded and to understand the difference between going to church and being the Church."
