Our mission

Check out Col 4:12. "Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you, always struggling on your behalf in his prayers, that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God." (ESV). This verse is a great encouragement and exhortation to us on the Board that your maturity in Christ is our primary responsibility before God.  It is very telling that Paul uses the word for agony when he describes how Epaphras prays for the Colossians.  Are we there yet in our prayers for you?  Not by a long shot.  But, by the grace of God and reminders like Col 4:12, we too are growing and maturing in Christ.  To God alone be a glory.
