Local and Global

Outreach

Local
outreach

We strive to be the means by which God introduces himself to our local community through intentional and meaningful partnerships. These include serving at the annual Brea 8K, providing welcome gifts for those moving into local apartments, and participating in Love Brea.

Global
outreach

We embrace a holistic approach to mission that not only nurtures the spiritual growth and salvation that is only found in Jesus, but that also actively addresses the tangible needs and social challenges of the communities we serve. In doing so, we seek to radiate the love and grace of Jesus throughout the world.
