Outreach Ministries

The purpose of Westwood’s Outreach Ministry is to draw people to faith in God through the love of Jesus, and help them become involved in Westwood Community Church or another faith-nurturing church community.

Westwood’s Outreach Ministry seeks to draw people to faith in God through the love of Jesus. God has blessed us and it is His desire that we in turn bless others. God said to Abraham: “…I will bless you…and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Jesus said “Follow me and I will make you fishers of men” (Mark 1:17, Matthew 4:19). The primary mission of Westwood, both as a community of believers and as individuals, is to unveil and implement God’s loving design to bless the world with Jesus. We invite you to explore the many opportunities to bless people near and far through the many outreach ministries of Westwood.

Outreach Goals
There are five primary goals for the outreach ministries of Westwood:

  • Establish the primacy of love in reaching people for Christ.
  • Cultivate a heart within the people of Westwood for those who do not yet have a relationship with Christ, and provide training and develop ministries to facilitate faith-sharing opportunities.
  • Develop ministries to help the oppressed and impoverished.
  • Send and support Westwood people into the community and around the world to serve and share Christ.
  • Start other reproducing churches nationally and internationally.

Upcoming Short-Term Trips

A trip is planned in 2009 for Malawi. Steps to participate in trips:

  • Participate in required orientation training seminars (Reaching Out to Immigrant Neighbors, Doing Short-term Mission Trips)
  • Contact Outreach Office or Ministry Team Leader for Team and Trip information.
  • Pray for God’s guidance and affirmation in your desire to serve cross-culturally.
  • Pray about individuals to ask for prayer and financial support.

"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jersualem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
