Missions

Serving God Across the Street, Across the Country, and Across the World

“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 28:19-20

At SAPC, we believe Jesus’ command to “Go” is for every believer. Our mission efforts reach across the street, across the country, and across the world, sharing the hope of the Gospel wherever God sends us. 

Missions means stepping out in faith with boldness because Jesus—who has all authority—has promised to be with us.

Everyone can take part—by praying, by giving, or by going.
