One of the last instructions Jesus gave His disciples before ascending into heaven was to "Go and make disciples... of all nations..." (Matthew 28:19-20). Sharing our faith with others is an important part of who we are as members of Jesus' family. Through Christ we have strength for living and hope for the future--that's Good News that must be told!
Missions at Hunter Street is centered on opportunities to share our faith with others. We can do that in many ways. Most of us are a little intimidated by the notion of walking up to a stranger and telling that person about Christ--though that is a powerful way to share your faith.
But we can also share Christ as we serve and help others. That could mean providing a free medical clinic in a country of the developing world, or helping to build a church in another state, or singing and doing drama in schools, or leading a Vacation Bible School in another nation. All of these are ways in which we can share the love of Christ with others. As we build relationships with people around the corner and across the globe, God opens up avenues for us to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
