Mission

Proclaim & Demonstrate the Gospel

We are active participants in the mission of God by both proclaiming the gospel and demonstrating the gospel. Our vision is to see both the San Jose area, and the world filled with the glory of God. This fullness comes when the gospel is peached courageously, believed on supernaturally and seen tangibly by the works of those who call Jesus their Lord. Thus we proclaim this truth and we let our good works shine before all men that our city, and world may see the work and glorify our Father who is in Heaven.

Local Mission

We are active participants in the mission of God by both proclaiming and demonstrating the gospel through evangelism and good works. Our vision is to see the San Jose area filled with the knowledge of the glory of God. This fullness comes when the gospel is peached courageously, believed on supernaturally, and seen tangibly through the works of those who call Jesus their Lord. Thus we proclaim and explain the truth of the gospel, letting our good works shine before all men that our city may see those works and glorify our Father who is in Heaven (Matt. 5:16)

We purposefully engage in Jesus’ mission to make the gospel known through individual evangelism, outreach through community groups, prayer, and partnering with Christian and non-profit organizations. Here are some examples of how we at West Hills San Jose participate in the mission of God:

Joni and Friends

We send workers to camps and help provide respite events in conjunction with this ministry dedicated to extending the love and message of Jesus Christ to people who are affected by disability. www.joniandfriends.org

Real Options

We support Real Options though fundraisers like Walk for Life, and giving volunteer hours in their clinics. Real Options strives to be the first place young people go to learn all their options regarding unplanned pregnancies. They offer a broad spectrum of prevention, intervention, and redemption services to the community that positively impacts over 7000 children and families each year in Santa Clara County. www.friendsofrealoptions.net

We partner with the correctional institutions in our area to visit the incarcerated and speak the gospel into their lives. www.cicministries.org
