Local Impact Ministry

Then He said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem." Luke 24:46-47

LOCAL IMPACT MINISTRY Defined - Sharing the message and ministry of Jesus Christ to the people of our Jerusalem by ministering to their needs both, spiritually and physically.

All of the West Park Core Values culminate in our passion to make disciples:

• In our Jerusalem - across the street
• In our Judea and Samaria - across the city
• To the end of the earth - across the globe
  

At West Park, we commit 1.5% of all tithes to invest in local impact. In addition, we encourage our church family to give offerings above their tithe to further maximize the open doors that God directs us through across our Jerusalem. Added together, these funds allow us to support and work with a focused number of ministries, city partners and agencies. We believe in developing solid long-term relationships with those we partner. We endeavor to assist them in as many ways as possible as we give, work, and minister.
