Mission and Outreach
We have a long history of being a church committed to helping others in our world and our community. We are in close relationship with the organizations we support, and we encourage, equip, empower, and expect our members to engage the world that surrounds us with the truth of God's eternal love and care. We also believe that we receive as much as we give by experiencing God at work through a variety of short-term missions and services such as Northville Civic Concern, Crossroads of Detroit, Gleaners, CROP Walk, Mitten Tree, Socks for Detroit Rescue Mission, Rebuilding Together, Salvation Army Red Kettle Drive, and more. We experience God through building community by leading when we know the way and searching with others when the path is not so well defined.
