The work of the Missions Committee is rooted in the Baptismal Covenant, which states that with God’s help we will proclaim by word and deed the Good News of God in Christ, strive to promote justice and peace among all people, and actively work in the community and in the world to respect the dignity of every human being. On the international level, with money collected in the little white churches on Sunday, we have been able to contribute to the digging of deep water wells in our companion diocese of Lui in the Sudan. On the national level, the Committee has helped support missions to the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. On the local level, Emmanuel has supported Webster-Rock Hill Ministries, the Episcopal City Mission and Habitat for Humanity.
