My Life Mission * My Community * Going Global

Clovis Hills invites you to look at ways where God can use you to share His love. Discover how an ordinary person like you can be used by an extraordinary God to make a difference wherever you go. We believe God’s greatest moments for you are never for you alone… they are meant to be shared.

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20

Clovis Hills is a part of a global plan to care for people who face the difficulties of spiritual emptiness, egocentric leadership, extreme poverty, pandemic disease and crippling illiteracy. We do this in conjunction with local churches worldwide.

" ... and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1:8

It is the vision of the Missions team at Clovis Hills to help people take the "next step" in sharing Jesus with those that don't know him, have never accepted him or are on this life journey striving to be a faithful disciple of Jesus. In future blogs I will elaborate further on the next steps but for now an overall view to consider:

• My Life Mission - recognizing the need to be on mission and part of a growth group.
• My Community - serving on mission in our local community with my growth group.
• Going Global - going on an international mission with my growth group.

So, where are you in this plan? Ask God to direct you and trust him to provide all you need to be obedient to his calling.

Peace!

God's Mission

God often uses ordinary people to do the extraordinary for his glory. His mission is to restore broken relationships. He longs to hang out with each one of us...and especially those that don't yet know him. He wants his children to join him in the mission of reconciliation...and that means us! Clovis Hills is intentional about sharing the love of Jesus to everyone. We have a value of Open Acceptance: A Heart for the Lost...welcoming people just where they are...and helping them take the next steps as they strive to become more like Jesus. God doesn't expect perfect people...just people with a heart's desire to love him and strive to model such a lifestyle.

Living such a life means to be intentional about serving God on his mission...to share the love of Jesus...across the street and across the sea. I know that for some people the thought of this can feel somewhat overwhelming...thank God he's with us on the journey! Fortunately, we also have another "tool" and that's Saddleback church. They have been working on a Missions strategy for the last couple of years called P.E.A.C.E. - we have been part of working through some of preliminary steps. Rick Warren has often said "It is time...for the church to be the church." The P.E.A.C.E. plan is a strategy that will help Clovis Hills to continue being a church with an intentional purpose of fullfilling the Great Commission. This is an exciting time in the life of our church...yeah God!

Are you ready to join God on his mission? What are you waiting for...let's go for it!
