Mission by Age For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus
to do good works,
which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Ephesians 2:10
The church experiences God's mission as it pours
itself out for others, crossing all boundaries to identify with the
struggles and needs, the yearnings and sorrows, the joys and fears, the
confusion and doubt, and the quest for true human dignity among all people
everywhere, especially those regarded as the least of God's children.

Church
