2007 Mission Trips
The purpose of the Mission Committee is based on
Mathew 25:34-36
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.
In the last ten years, the Starmount Mission Committee has disbursed over $300 thousand to various charitable organizations and has sponsored numerous mission trips (abroad and within the United States) to help those in need.
