Our mission is to teach and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to all,
with the principles of Biblical truths and salvation. Each individual
that enters our church environment must have a safe and loving place
to fellowship and grow in. To help, uplift, encourage and minister to
those in need is our mission and desire.Calvary Tabernacle UPC of Mountlake Terrace, Washington was founded in
1983 with the express purpose of preaching and teaching the Gospel of
Jesus Christ to all in need. The purpose of this church body is to seek
out and minister to those in need, both spiritually and physically,
whatever that need may be.
We believe that we should support those among us who are in need with
whatever resources are available to us. The scripture tells us in many
passages that we be Christ-like in our outreach and dealings with others.
The apostle Paul in Galatians 2:10 entreats us to "remember the poor".
In the book of James we are told that "true religion" is this, "to visit
the fatherless and widows in their affliction."While our focus as a church must be on those spiritual needs of an
individual, the temporal needs must be addressed so that God may work
in those lives that need Him. The church has to take the opportunity to
make itself available to the community as a resource to feed the hungry,
meet the needs of the neglected and abused, provide shelter when necessary,
and help reestablish lives and families.
