This month, we started a new Outreach Ministry here at RHBC. This new ministry is called CREW, which stands for Christians, Reaching, Encouraging, Witnessing. We are instructed in scripture to Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you (Matt. 28:19-20). We meet twice monthly. Our next meeting is on October 22nd @ 7 PM. We will do different outreach activities. Contact Pastor Tyler for more information.
