This ministry was formed for the
specific and primary purpose of the proclamation of the Good News as set forth
in the Christian Bible. This is to be accomplished by various methods.
In accordance with the above purpose set forth in the Articles of
Incorporation, our present mission goals are as follows:
- The ongoing development of Buffalo
Ridge Retreat Center, where we provide hospitality
and ministry to pastors, missionaries, youth leaders, rescue mission
directors, homeless shelter workers, urban campus ministers and other
caregivers and their families. Buffalo Ridge provides a quiet
restful place for those in ministry from a wide variety of para-church
organizations, denominations, and ministries. The change of pace
and responsibilities can help individuals gain a fresh perspective
on their calling. In providing encouragement, understanding, fellowship,
continuing education opportunities, rest and relaxation for these
servants, all those they serve benefit. We see tremendous ministry
value in times of meditation, rest, and family vacation for those
who minister in the midst of urban congestion, crime, and daily stress. Buffalo
Ridge provides
a low cost retreat for weary workers.
- Continue ministry to individuals and groups
through religious retreats, prayer sessions, Bible studies, and worship
services.
- Complement the work of local churches by helping
to network local pastors to be an encouragement and source of accountability
among each other.
- Teaching ministry.
