"Go therefore and make disciples..."
Our "Distant Mission" program is extensive. Each year, nearly two-thirds of the adult population of Lost Creek will travel somewhere to engage in mission work. The foundation of our distant mission work is a long-term commitment to work in Alaska and Belize. We also send a team every year to the Sager Brown Depot in Louisiana. Besides these large trip initiatives, members will also travel on teams to many other places. Lost Creek members have traveled to many places on mission including Costa Rica, Peru, Bolivia, and Poland.
The mission of our church is "to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world." One of the best ways disciples are made is in Sunday School classes, where participants learn more about their faith and grow in their understanding of God. At Lost Creek, we have several Sunday School classes, each with a distinct personality. Take a look below at our current classes and see which is the best fit for you!
