BEREAN MISSIONS T-SHIRT FUNDRAISER - SOUTH KOREA AND INDIA
“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves.” – Matthew 10:16
In light of the times, we hope that this shirt would serve as a reminder to us, God’s flock, that we live in evil days, surrounded by false teaching and ideology. May it encourage us to be vigilant, discerning the times so that we may be approved workmen who go out into the world with both wisdom and innocence as we strive to make disciples of all nations.
All proceeds will go toward supporting our missions trips to South Korea and India in 2026. Thank you for your support and partnership in what God is doing through Berean Community Church!
You can pre-order here until November 30: Berean Missions T-Shirt Fundraiser
Cost: $30. Please send payment via Venmo to @bcc_missions
Please look out for distribution date updates.
