Jesus gave his followers an outward mandate:

“You will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem,
throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." ~Acts 1:8

HVC’s mission statement includes two outward facing intentions, reaching and impacting, which are focused on those outside our church walls.
For simplicity’s sake, we call it all Impact, encompassing outreach, evangelism, missions, and service to our closest neighbors and to those around the world.
