Mission of Work

As a Christian, I believe God wants us to share the Gospel with all we come in contact with, as well as those opportunities beyond our reach.
To do so, I need to daily grow in my faith and knowledge of God's saving grace and forgiveness. Personal study as well as ongoing fellowship with other Christians in various ways (worship, bible study, etc.) helps me to continue to grow in my faith.
This applies as well to what LCMS and NID focuses on - Knowing, Growing and Being Christlike to other.

Challenges, Opportunities, and Goals

I believe that my previous and current experiences, both within and outside of the church could be helpful in supporting the missions of NID and LCMS.
