Missions
Here at Maranatha Baptist Fellowship, we take Jesus' command to go and make disciples of all nations seriously (Matthew 28:19a), and we understand that people often also need practical help for the challenges they face in our modern world. Therefore, we have chosen to support a variety of Christian mission organizations whose impact for spreading the Gospel and helping people extends from our local community to others in New Jersey and nearby states, and, indeed, to people in numerous countries around the world.
The Bible says, ". . . Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, . . . (Luke 12:48b), and so we reach out to help others come to know the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and to help them meet their practical needs as well, so that we might truly be doing unto others as we would have them do unto us (see Matthew 7:12).
