With a strong faith, Greg states, “Missions begins at home and goes out from there. As Christians our mission is to share Christ wherever we are. For some it will be to minister to those net door, for others it means to go serve in other countries, and for others it will be anywhere in between. Missions is also about serving together as a body with each doing their own part whether it be praying, encouraging, telling, financially supporting, or going.”
