At WBC, we just spent a couple of weeks embracing a mini-series where we focused in on a compelling component of our mission. As we worship our Lord and become mature disciples, we are reminded to also “Carry the Love of Jesus” in our community and around the world. Excitement filled the room as the church talked about one of the points of our mission for two weeks in a row! This two week series did great things for reminding us about the “C” component of WBC.

Our Powerful God lives inside of us, church! As we connect deeply with what it means to “carry the love of Jesus,” we hope everyone can discover practical ways we can believe it, know it, discover it and actually carry it locally and globally. What is the “it?” It is - The Love of Jesus Christ.

During the two weeks, we spent time discovering and acting on where we can engage at WBC, locally and globally to “Carry the Love of Christ.” On Sunday, October 26th, missionaries Mike Cloud and Immanuel Christian shared in both morning services to help us remember to Carry the Love of Jesus globally. Several missionaries were also on hand to share in the Sunday morning community classes to encourage all of us to remember and to show us how to carry the love of Christ around the world.

Be reminded of this compelling part of our mission:
CARRY CHRIST’S LOVE TO THE WORLD. Any journey with God must involve reaching outside of our church to be a part of God’s mission in the world. We hope that you will be a part of shining God’s light in the darkest corners of our community and world - Locally & Globally.

The Vision for This
• We envision meeting the needs of Ellis County in tangible ways that live out the gospel of Jesus Christ. We envision sharing the gospel with thousands of people in the Ellis County area. (Isaiah 55:11; Acts 2:43-47; Luke 6:27-36; Romans 5:15; II Corinthians 4:15, Phil 2:14-16; I Thess. 1:8)

• We envision our church as a place where the salvation of souls is the norm, not the exception. (Luke 15:4-6; Luke 19:10; John 14:6; Colossians 1:4-6; I Timothy 4:10; I Thess. 1:5-6; 2 Peter 3:9)

• We envision welcoming people into our body who are seeking to grow together in love and experience healing in their lives, families, relationships, and marriages. (Luke 9:48, Acts 28:30; Luke 14:21-23; I Cor. 13:1-3; I John 4:7-10)

• We envision recruiting, training, and sending out all of our people as missionaries, church planters, and church workers all over the world.We also envision all of our people pursuing short-term mission’s service in various countries. (Psalm 22:27; Isaiah 49:6; Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 16:15; Matthew 7:13-14, Acts 13:2-3; Romans 10:14-15, I Corinthians 3:5-11)

• We envision planting churches in Ellis County, America or abroad as God leads and provides. We also seek to fully develop the leadership for these church plants. (Acts 1:8; 2 Peter 1:1-10)

• We envision a facility that will accommodate our growth and be accessible to all of Ellis County. Thus, we desire to grow as God prospers us and uses us to reach a lost and dying world. (Acts 2:43-47; Mark 4:1-9)
