Local Missions are service opportunities in your community. A passion for missions doesn’t have to take you overseas; through the power of the Holy Spirit, you can serve as a witness for Jesus Christ in your hometown and surrounding areas. Jesus said in Acts 1:8, “but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria and even to the remotest part of the earth.” The Great Commission is all encompassing, sending some to foreign missions, but challenging many of us to serve as missionaries right here at home – locally.
