Mission - By the grace of God, Fifth Christian Church will
humbly yet without apology share the life-changing, systems-transforming love of God through bringing
people to Jesus; caring for children and youth, the poor and the sick; and challenging unjust systems and
practices so that people living as close to us as Cleveland's Lee-Harvard area, across the United
States, and all the way to Africa might achieve their Kingdom of God potential. (Micah 6:1-8; Matthew 28:19-20; Luke 4:16-21;
Acts 1.1-8)
