THE WHY BEHIND MISSIONS
The Woodcrest Christian Missions Program exists to glorify God by providing spiritually impactful and transformational opportunities for students, and to support and bless selected Christian ministries around the world.
The answer to why we go on missions trips is worship. John Piper says, “Missions exist because worship doesn’t.” We want God to be glorified in our pursuit of excellence in education as well as the discipleship of Woodcrest Christian students. Since its inception, Woodcrest Christian has been joining in the work of God to redeem the world through the gospel of Jesus Christ. Thankfully, we have the privilege of joining that process as part of our discipleship. Students are directly exposed to God’s global efforts and hopefully begin to understand their own lives as part of something much bigger than themselves. Discipleship through missions gives hands and feet to serving one another and loving our neighbors.
