     WHAT IS GLOBAL    

OUTREACH SUNDAY?

GO Sunday is a one-day event designed to mobilize and equip the SWBIBLE community to be supporters and workers in our global outreach mission. Our mission is to know Jesus and make Him known—starting with our own community and extending throughout the world so all nations may know and praise Him!

LEARN

We will spend time digging into God’s word and be captured by His heart for all the nations.

PRAY

We will devote time in prayer for the nations and for our brothers and sisters across the globe who are preaching the gospel and making disciples.

RESPOND

We will respond by taking action to partner with our GO Workers through care, prayer, and financial support or by taking steps to move toward going to the nations.
