Mission 242:
Planting a church for the city.
In the Bible, the book of Acts (2:42-47) provides a powerful description of the first Christian church. Their hearts and minds were devoted to Jesus Christ. The people were unified. And their focus was singular: to live like Jesus. They met together to build relationships and learn from the words of Jesus, and they went out into their communities, giving away themselves and their possessions. And through it all, people continued to experience the wholeness (shalom) of Jesus. This is the heart of Mission 242.
The purpose of Mission 242 is to plant a new church with the mission to be a community devoted to Jesus, working together toward wholeness and living as change-agents in Waldo and Brookside.
The dream of Mission 242 is to be a reproducing church, sending members to plant neighborhood churches all over the Kansas City metroplex.
