as Christians, as followers of Christ
we are called to mission, to
ministry
as we walk in this life
as a people, as individuals
bearing our witness, our
gifts
within the body of Christ
our calling from Jesus
our one great commission
is to bring the stranger,
others
to bring them from the
“outside” in
into communion, into the
circle
into the family, into the
body of Christ
we are to make disciples,
baptizing them
in Christ’s holy name
