Mission/Vision Our mission is evolved and created through Christ instruction, command and inspiration found in the Great Commission which empowers us. Mission/Vision Something one wants to do, a “purpose,” and or structure. Our mission tells who we are and our reason for existence. Descriptive words such as: empowering, sharing, caring, effort, witnessing, changing lives, provision and salvation were offered up by the members. We concluded most of our words were action oriented words. Action words ought to state; what we stand for and what we intend to accomplish. We also felt that words such as; global, local, reaching the lost, prison ministry, voice of women, virtue, integrity and comforting defined our fulfillment of the Great Commission. As a team we expounded on many ideas and formulations and assessed the following as our mission as the Outreach Ministry of Faith Family Community Church.
