Through missions we seek to make a difference. It is by God's design that all people come to a life of faith. By using this guide, it is our desire that you will come to a greater knowledge of our Missions ministry here at Advent.
Our goal is to mobilize the people of Advent to express their faith by giving of themselves in service to others. Every church has a spirit and philosophy that permeates its people and ministries. Advent provides a number of opportunities for mission work. We want to direct our ministries in a way that will help us achieve Advent's mission. It is important that each individual has an opportunity to participate personally in mission activity.
Descriptions, activities, and ways to get involved in each of the mission activities supported by Advent are provided on the pages in this section. Click on the images to learn more.
We encourage you learn more about the many ways you can transform the world!
