Outreach

In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.  - Matthew 5:16

Christ calls us to reach out to the lost so that they may know Him.  He calls us to serve people in need, the orphans, the widows and the poor.  It is our job to share the love of Christ through our words and actions that are a result of the spirit within us.  The best place to start is in our homes and communities.  Our Local Outreach teams work to serve in our communities so that people see and experience the laborer's working in the field.  We partner with community organizations to provide both our service and resources to help them meet their goals.  Our annual serve project, this year called SERVE10, we serve in community projects that reach people and areas that can use our people to advance their work.  Our Boomerangs Resale Store serves the Madison area while profits are given to local faith-based organizations including Salvation Army, Nehemiah Corporation and The Road Home homeless shelter.

I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective for the full knowledge of every good thing that is in us for the sake of Christ. - Philemon 1:6

And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.  Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.  And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." - Matthew 28:18-20

Christ commands us to go to the nations to witness and share the Gospel with those who have never heard.  Reaching out to people of all tongues, tribes and nations begins first here in our own community where people from all over the world live.  Reaching international in our neighborhoods and through campus ministries are a couple places we can reach the world in the city of Madison.

We also GO to the nations beginning with church partnerships we have on different continents.  Through partnerships with over 40 career missionaries and church partnerships in Guatemala and Africa, Door Creek is involved in ministry that reaches several other people groups, and in turn, changes who we are as our worldviews are changed...for the better.  Each year Door Creek has missionaries and church partners that visit our church and we also send short term teams with a long term view to minister overseas with our church partners.

And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. - Matthew 24:14

Join us in Christ's commands and these kingdom building efforts.
