About Our Missions Ministry
STF is a Church for the city, country, and nation. In Mattew 28:19, Jesus commanded the first disciples to “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” Did you know that more than 6,000 of the world’s people groups are still unreached? That translates to an estimated 3.28 billion unreached people living in the world today out of 7.84 billion people globally. We’ve still got a lot of work to do at home and abroad! Please make no mistake. The great commission is for us to obey. At STF, we want to see God’s glory realized in the lives of those who are still walking in darkness without the gospel, which is the message of eternal life. Our vision is to reach the lost with the gospel. Then, disciple them in order to release missionaries into the parts of the world where God is calling.
