The spirit of Missions is the heart of Jesus and should be the heart beat of every church. Emerald City Bible Fellowship is determined to be a mission-minded church with a local and global focus. This focus means that we are always looking for effective ways to reach out to our community and to various parts of the world by simply proclaiming and demonstrating the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our aim is to simply be doers of the word and not hearers only.
Because of our commitment to global missions our members have ministered in places as near as Mexico and as far as South Africa and several countries in
between such as Guatemala, El Salvador, Congo

and Sierra Leone.
Because of our commitment to local missions Emerald City Bible Fellowship has dedicated every fifth Sunday to serving our community in practical ways. We believe that by doing “good works” it helps us to build “good will” with our community which, in turn, lead to opportunities to share the “good news” of Jesus with those we serve.

We also have a separate Not-For-Profit Christian Community Development organization in partnership with Rainier Avenue Free Methodist church through which we do a variety of community outreaches. (See UrbanImpactseattle.org)
Our Commitment to missions also affords us the opportunity to financially support others who are engaged in life changing relationships and ministry such as New Horizons Ministries and Servant Partners. This church believes that as you engage yourself in missions you will know God's heart for the nations and our community.

are several ways to actively participate in missions:
Volunteer to serve your local community
Pray for those personally engaged in missions. Because Praying for others is the closest thing to being there.
Consider going on a short-term mission trip. You will never be the same.
Support a missionary or mission project with your prayer and financial gifts. When you make a personal investment you have engaged yourself in missions.
