Our mission (as Kessid Community Outreach) is to provide opportunities for our congregation to serve and enrich the lives of those in our community, as well as ourselves. The program is based on activities that allow our congregation to reach out and assist with needs in our immediate community, and occasionally in neighboring counties. The center of the outreach program will be to actively seek out needs within Vancouver either independently, or by plugging in with existing organizations, to serve others in whatever way God calls us to. For more info contact Michelle White at michellew@kessidchurch.com.
“Each one (of us) should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms” 1 Peter 4:10
“…remember the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ’It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35
