The mission of the Christian church is stated in Matthew 28:19, “Go ye therefore, and tell all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” To accomplish this, St. Paul marshals available resources and technologies to make known the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The good news that we proclaim must be authentic and must be a living witness in the life of worshippers and proclaimers. Acting under the authority and rule of God, we are in partnership with God in deliverance from the bondage of economic oppression, racial injustice, and social and political inequities. As a church, we foster and promote praise to our God who gave us Jesus Christ, who has set us free and made us whole.
