Outreach
“Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” Matthew 25:40 (NSRV)
Shepherd of the Hills Christian Church is a small, but active, community of believers in Jesus Christ. We are guided in outreach activities by His love for all people.
Over $40,000 in outreach to the greater community was provided in 2009. In addition to the monetary outreach contributions, the entire church reaches out to the larger community through weekly, monthly and holiday collections, as well as through many hours of volunteered time to organizations and those in need. Financial contributions were made by the entire church through the budget to the Outreach Committee, Christian Women's Fellowship, Christian Men's Fellowship, Youth, and the Book Club.
The 2010 planned Outreach Projects for assisting local nonprofit organizations in their missions includes:
