impact

Voyage is a community where people are impacting others by showing God’s love in practical ways. We also want to impact the world through the allure of Christ-like virtues and the presentation of the true gospel of repentance and faith as opportunities arise.

As evidence of our seriousness about impacting others, every last Sunday of the month is dedicated to impacting the community through our involvement in numerous projects that will be scheduled around the area. We will not hold a regular gathering on last Sundays of the month, but will instead gather around needy people in the Silverdale/Bremerton area and show them how much God cares about them.

Impact teams will also go out at other times during the month to impact the community with God’s love.

what does it mean to impact at Voyage?

We are striving to be community of people who are selflessly, unconditionally and radically serving God.

We believe that when we discover the truths of the bible and when we begin to thrive spiritually, God begins filling up the glass of our lives with his love so that it can overflow to other people, especially those who are in need.

One priority we have is to meet the needs of hurting people who are within the Voyage community. They are a part of our family and have come under the umbrella of our protection. As the world hears about our loving good deeds through the testimony of those who have been blessed, they will know that we are true disciples of Christ.

But it is also extremely important to us to meet the needs of people in the community at large. Wherever there is a need around the world, statistics show that no one steps in to lend a helping hand like Christ followers. We want to be that kind of a light to Kitsap County. As we serve others, they will experience God’s love through his people, and some will turn to the God who has made his love and care so evident to them.

key impact verses from the bible:

“If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? My dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. This then is how we know that we belong to the truth.” John 3:17-19

“Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, ‘Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it not accompanied by action, is dead.” James 2:15-17

“Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need...there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone as he had need.” Acts 2:45; 4:34,35

“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden, neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise you Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16

“By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:35

“Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.” 1 Peter 2:12

‘“In every way they will make the teaching about God our savior attractive.” Titus 2:10

“As we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially those who belong to the family of God.” Galatians 6:10

“They are to serve brothers even better because those who benefit from their service are believers and dear to them.” 1 Timothy 6:2

“God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.” Hebrews 6:10
