Fulfilling the Great Commission

The Mission of the Church is to fulfill the Great Commission - helping others become passionate, contagious followers of Jesus Christ. We believe this is best accomplished in the context of the local church. Why? Because that is exactly what Jesus is all about building ... His church! (Matt 16:18)

Through partnerships with like-minded churches and the Haiti Initiative we assist in church planting in the United States and abroad. Missions also includes actively involving our church body in local outreach to Central Illinois area and in short-term trips to assist meeting needs in international churches.

LOCAL MISSIONS

The Mission of Summit Point Church is "to make disciples." The Missions ministry of the church seeks to fulfill that mission via church planting. Thus, the Local Outreach aspect of Summit Point Missions helps Summit Point Church shine the light of Jesus in the local community.  

This is accomplished by actively involving our body in the life of the surrounding community with the specific intent of helping felt needs, in order to act as a light to draw others back to the local church. These activities may be decidedly evangelistic, or they may just be compassionate in nature. But they will always allow the church to be a local light and eventually lead to sharing Jesus. 

CURRENT LOCAL INITIATIVES INCLUDE:

BACKPACKS FOR KIDS Backpacks for Kids is a great opportunity for our church directly to impact our local community by coming alongside families in need of some assistance getting ready for the school year.

Z7TEN - Caring for the vulnerable in Jesus' name. Z7TEN is the opportunity for us to meet needs in the lives of our church families. We do this by providing basic care items as well as providing crisis response, service opportunities, and donating necessary items.

GIVING TREE Giving Tree is a great opportunity for Summit Point to love on families during this Christmas season by giving the gift of one clothing item and one toy to around 300 children in the neighboring schools, Young Lives Program, and foster care.

    COMPASSION DAY - This is a day for the church body to rally together to serve Him as we serve others. We branch out into the surrounding community serving at local ministries and non-profit organizations spreading the light and love of Jesus Christ to the region. 

     

    SNACK PACKS - Summit Point Church provides 180+ students in Morton, East Peoria, and Peoria with Snack Packs during the school year.

    SUMMIT PLANTING INITIATIVE

    The Summit Planting Initiative exists to glorify God through planting and supporting like-minded churches around the world. We seek to plant churches with indigenous pastors who are excited about growing God’s Kingdom in their home countries. We are also passionate about partnering individuals or churches with Planted Churches to support them by prayer, finances, and/or hands-on assistance.

    SHORT-TERM TRIPS

    Short-Term trips serve to encourage, support, and to partner with local churches nationally and internationally to reach their local communities for Christ and engage in discipling them. They also serve as a discipleship opportunity for those within our church body to grow in depth and breadth in their faith.
