A church dedicated to serving others exemplifies the Gospel in action, demonstrating that the church is not merely a building but an outreach of Christ’s love for others.

 

As James 2:14-17 reminds us, faith becomes truly alive when paired with works, and a church’s service transforms belief into visible acts of love and compassion. By reaching out to those in need, the church reflects Christ’s teachings, offering hope, support, and care to its community. Service is not merely an obligation but a profound expression of faith, showing Christ’s love in ways that inspire and uplift. In serving others, the church becomes a living extension of His hands and feet, transforming lives and drawing people closer to God.

 

The Mission Team, at Land O Lakes UMC, undertakes the responsibility of identifying mission opportunities within the community and around the world. Our team members serve as liaisons between our church and community agencies, foster avenues for church and community members to give back, and search for creative pathways to see transformation within individuals and the global community.  Our Mission Team meets monthly to review past projects, identify new needs, and develop a calendar of missional activities.

 

We welcome your participation in the places where you feel called to be in service to God’s people.
