MISSIONS
& M-25:
Director: Tim Blackburn
In Matthew 28:19 Jesus tells us to Go into
all the world and preach the gospel. We know that all of us cannot go, so the
missions department is how we send ministers that can. We support the "GO",
Global Outreach Offering annually. This offering enables the IPHC to support
missionaries in over 80 countries. Not only do we support Global Missions, but
we also reach our church family and bless them in a time of need. We are aware
that St. Pauls, and surrounding areas are our Mission field. You can support
Missions on the first Sunday of each month in Sunday School or by placing your
gift in a marked envelope. TOGETHER WE CAN REACH THE WORLD!

M25 people are those mentioned in Matthew 25:34-40; i.e., the sick,
the hungry, the thirsty, the naked, and those in prison. We have ministries in
the following areas: The homeless/hungry ministry; The prison/jail ministry, and
The biker ministry, to name a few. We hope and pray to be able to reach these
people with the hope of Jesus Christ and the support of someone who cares. In
reaching out to them, we are reaching out to Jesus Christ himself. If you or
anyone you know needs our prayers or service, please feel free to contact us
through this website.
