The Mission
The mission of EmergenceNJ is the same mission as Jesus gave his followers--to bring glory to God by participating in the Great Commission:
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20

If we are loving Jesus and being changed relationally over time, our labor together will, by God's grace, result in the spiritually-dead fields of North Jersey being filled with life!
