Through sharing in God's ministry and mission we seek to walk in the footsteps of Jesus Christ, and we invite all to walk with us.

MONTH OF COMPASSION
Jesus of Nazareth demonstrated God’s compassion so often in responding to the needs of those people who were poor, sick, needy and downtrodden. The Church is called to continue the compassionate ministry and mission of our Lord. At Immanuel we therefore designate August as our Month of Compassion to make us more keenly aware of our responsibility as followers of Christ.
