The Great Commission

Acts Community Church embraces the Great Commission to go into all the world and preach the Gospel.  We both support those who go, and we also sponsor trips each year where we go.  

Who we support...

Several years ago a man came to Bedford and taught on Prayer Walking.  He invited some folks to go with him to China to "Prayer walk" areas of the country, and so our first small group went with him and saw the power of the Gospel first hand.  Since then, we have enjoyed keeping in contact and supporting the South East Asia Prayer Center and Mark Geppert and his family, who run the mission focused ministry.  Check them out at www.SEAPC.us 

We also support several other efforts, some of which have spun off of SEAPC, such as Firstlight Evangelism, an outreach to Thailand led by Dan and Debbie Ecker. www.firstlightinternational.net

Another great work is that of Antiock Bridges International.  www.antiochbridgesinternational.org    

Where we go...

For the past three years, we have sent a group of people down to San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora, Mexico. The area is a place that needs God's helping hand. Each year we have visited an orphange that is ran by a organization called "Caring Hearts". Visit their website at www.caringheartsmexico.com  Also, while we are down there we have visited the local dump, drug rehab centers, and many other places in need. We are not sure yet when the next trip down to Mexico will be. When it is decided, it will be posted here.

We will also be returning to Thailand and Cambodia in late December and early January, 2009.  The trip is in conjuction with Firstlight Evangelism and New Hope for Orphans Cambodia.  We will be meeting with a church we have partnered with in northern Thailand to help them strengthen Christians and reach out to their communities.  We will also be visiting Orphanages in Cambodia, where the church and several members and classes sponsor children.
