Mission and Service is one of our church’s best answers to the question “What would Jesus do?”
The question “What would Jesus do?” often shortened to the acronym “WWJD,” has graced wrist bands, T-shirts, and bumper stickers since the 1990s. And while it might sound like an overused cliché, it’s a question that can lead our spirit and, by extension, our lives to profound transformation.
What did Jesus do? He crossed a lot of boundaries. In fact, when we think about the boundaries that separate people―things like money, gender, education, culture, religion, and class―Jesus crossed them all, inspiring hope, inclusion, and compassion.
In the same way, our generosity through Mission and Service breaks down walls that divide and builds bridges that draw us together.
Your generosity supports organizations like hospitals, counselling centres, drop-in circles, and homeless shelters that are there when people need them most. Your gifts sustain education programs that teach farming skills, provide job training, and help remove obstacles so children can remain in school. Your generosity stands up for victims of human trafficking, ensures workers and children know their rights, and advocates for those persecuted because of their sexual orientation, gender, or beliefs. It fosters anti-racism, supports healing and reconciliation, and deepens spiritual practice.
Through Mission and Service, the arms of your generosity stretch wide, reaching into schools, camps, hospitals, shelters, prisons, and churches.
