Our Mission
and
Our Vision
"All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you. For kingship belongs to the LORD, and he rules over the nations."
Psalm 22:27-28
Mission
We believe Paul is a good example of a missionary. In fact, he instructed the Corinthians to "be imitators of me, as I am of Christ" (1 Corinthians 11:1). Paul's missionary activity involved entering places, sharing the gospel, making and strengthening disciples, and appointing elders in the churches that were formed as Christ worked through him (Romans 15:18). We devote ourselves to these very same activities as we prayerfully look to Christ to accomplish his work through us. We believe that he is bringing about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations, which includes the Blackfeet Nation (Romans 1:5).
"When they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. And when they had appointed elders for them every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed."
Acts 14:21-23
Vision:
Reservation Reformation
The Blackfeet Reservation is located in Glacier County, Montana. The current state of evangelical Christianity here is bleak at best. Recent census data for Glacier County shows that 55% of the eternal souls adhere to Roman Catholicism and 30% of them claim no religion at all. And there are ZERO reformed churches on the Blackfeet Reservation.
But we don't believe that the story stops on such a bleak note. Our hope for these beautiful people isn't weakened by census data. Rather, our hope for them is strengthened by what the Scriptures declare. Our gracious King Jesus has definitely ransomed people from every tribe and nation. That includes the Blackfeet Nation. We pray for the Holy Spirit to be abundantly poured out onto these immortal souls. We believe that this will only happen as the biblical gospel is preached to them. Our vision is to see disciples gathered into a united front of interconnected gospel-preaching churches. We are praying for nothing less than a reformation to happen on the Reservation!
The "darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining" (1 John 2:8).
