CHRISTIAN OUTREACH

The Life of an Apostle

The person who lives the life of grace reaches outward to serve others, even as Jesus did.  This outreach may begin with family and friends, but does not end there. This is the witness of a person who has tried to live apostolically: bringing Jesus’ love into the world in small and large ways, both in church ministry and in acts of service in neighborhood and workplace.
