In Matthew 28:16-20, we find Jesus speaking to His disciples and sharing with them what they’re to do next after He ascends into Heaven, and He tells them this. Matthew 28:16-20 | “[16] Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. [17] And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. [18] And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. [19] Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, [20] teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” The apostles set to work after they received these orders, and from that time on believers have been called to do the same: share Jesus with others and make disciples!

So why do outreach? Because it’s a part of the orders to make disciples! It goes hand in hand as well with what Paul writes in Romans 10; for people to be saved, they need to hear the Word of God. That is the heart of any outreach event at CBC: to share Jesus.

This Saturday we have another opportunity for outreach at our Fall Festival! Would you please join me in prayer for the festival, the weather, and, most importantly, to see people come to know Jesus at the festival!
