Missions
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
(Acts 1:8)
At Grace Point, we are passionate about fulfilling the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations (Matt. 28:18-20). We are called to freely share the Gospel through words and actions. God wants the whole world to hear the Good News through ordinary followers of Jesus like us!
Our Acts 1:8
We believe that God has commissioned each of us as individuals and as a church to be witnesses in:
- Our Jerusalem - in our local church and community
- Our Judea - in our Lower Bucks County region
- Our Samaria - Philly/Metro Area
- Ends of the Earth - globally
At Grace Point our missions and outreach opportunities are strategic to help us focus on key areas of ministry and work in our "Acts 1:8" circles of influence.
Our Global Focus - Lebanon
FOCUS is an acronym that stands for First Priority, Objectives Oriented, Collaborative, Untapped Potential, and Strategic. This means that the project chosen to be our FOCUS will receive first priority among our missions projects and new initiatives. The basis of our FOCUS is that it is a partnership with strategic goals and objectives to help meet key ministry needs both here at home and overseas. We hope that our FOCUS will be an opportunity for everyone in our church (regardless of your experience and/or skillset) to be involved in missions at a deeper level for significant Kingdom impact.
The FOCUS Selection Team worked for many months evaluating each of our current missions initiatives, interviewing missionaries, reflecting on prior initiatives that had great energy and momentum, and analyzing our church’s DNA in the areas of ministry, make-up, and missions history. After our survey trips, careful analysis and much prayer, it was clear that God was leading us towards Lebanon and the multi-faceted ministry opportunities there that include outreach to neighboring countries. Our team made solid connections with other like-minded churches and explored various ways that we could partner together.
