Missions
Our Mission at Mayfield Church:
“To make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world…”
“Hands That Serve”
“Hands that Serve” allows us to highlight one mission project each month. Members of the congregation learn about the project through newsletter articles, announcements and displays. Members are encouraged to support the project each month with your ongoing gifts and prayers. Click HERE for the 2021 schedule.
We hope to be able to return to supporting these missions with our monthly mission fellowship breakfasts in the near future. In the meantime, please continue to support these mission lifelines through online giving.
Local/Regional
