SE ILLINOIS group |
|
OAFC is a recognized service organization of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod; teaching youth and adults to better share their faith in Jesus Christ as the only way to heaven, through the suffering, death and resurrection of God's son, Jesus Christ. OAFC's three fold purpose is to (1)witness to all about the certainty of eternal life through Jesus Christ (2)invite the unchurched to the congregations we serve (3)train other youth and adults to confidently share their faith. We share this message of Jesus through: Bible study - witnessing methods - drama - puppets - personal witness - song - prayer The SE Illinois group of OAFC covers an area from Springfield/Decatur down to the I-70 cooridor and from I-55 to the Indiana line. | |
