Reach out to neighbors – Near and Far
This is more than a phrase in a Mission Statement for Salem. It is our way of life. Reaching out to our neighbors to help them experience an abundant life is part of our identity. It is nurtured in our children and matured in our adults. From packing meals at Feed My Starving Children to helping box medical supplies at Global Health Ministries, everyone gets in on the work.
“Perhaps nothing helps us make the movement from our little selves to a larger world than remembering God in gratitude.” Henri Nouwen
Mission – Near
One of the most important aspects of life at Salem is our ministry to our immediate neighbors. Our congregation is full of life almost every night of the week. Not all of this activity is Salem sponsored. We view our building as a resource for our neighborhood, so we might all grow in the sense of belonging to each other. Click here to learn more
