OUTREACH
And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone." Matthew 16:15
Our Savior’s supports numerous organizations including:
- World Vision
- Riverside Bible Camp
- Youth Encounter
- NE Iowa Synod (benevolence)
See the Adult page for missions that the WELCA support.
At the January 15, 2006, Annual Meeting we approved to use the remaining Centennial money to support future missions.
