Mission

Mission Commission

 

West Swamp has always been a mission-minded congregation, and the church today is building on its rich heritage of sharing God’s love with the people of our community and the world.

Our goals for 2017 are:

• Encourage and assist any West Swamp individual or group in pursuing any mission project or activity

• Continue to build stronger ties with these local missions:
  • AHUB (Advocates for the Homeless of Upper Bucks)
  • Camp Men-O-Lan
  • Food Pantries (Quakertown & Trumbauersville)
  • Quakertown area nursing homes
  • Crossroads Community Center of Philadelphia
  • Solidarity and Harmony Church of Philadelphia
  • Ripple in Allentown

• Increase awareness of local and world-wide outreach opportunities and encourage participation in a timely and effective manner

Our commission does not (and cannot!) do all the mission of West Swamp alone. We encourage all our members to find a mission to get involved with and let the love of Jesus Christ work through them in whatever they may do.
