DOING THIS TOGETHER

A defining aspect of our partnerships is the importance of creating a two-way street of engagement. Learning and contributing allow us to be more than a church that's good at charity, but a church that impacts change. We want to play a role with our partners in creating a world that supports the thriving of others.

What Does It Mean to
be Vital and Necessary?

At Westwood, part of our vision has been to be "a vital and necessary part of our community and world." As a result, we have developed a wide variety of local community partnerships, overseas relationships in Tanzania, and internal ministries. We are open and curious to the question of what God is up to in our community and how we are called to participate.
