Reaching the Unreached
We want to be a church family who strive to be disciples, family members and missionaries of all nations for the glory of God! As Jesus said to his disciples, “the harvest is plentiful but the labourers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord to send out labourers into his harvest.”
Join us in Prayer!
