"Every Christian is either a missionary or an imposter." {Charles H. Spurgeon}
The Philadelphia Church takes the call to outreach seriously. We seek to pray for, train and support outreach efforts that glorify God by fulfilling the Great Commandment (Matt. 22:37) & Great Commission (Matt. 28:18). We look to Acts 1:8 as a guide: “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
We interpret this verse in our context to be Jesus’ witnesses locally (the greater Oak Ridge area), regionally (New Jersey and neighboring states), nationally and internationally.
