| Time
is short and taking the gospel message to 176 countries seems to be an
insurmountable task that is why partnering with missionaries and mission
agencies is vital to see the great commission fulfilled in reaching our
country and across the world.
Missions are an on going ministry – we endeavor to give over $50,000
a year to support mission efforts around the globe to help further proclaim
the gospel message. The first Sunday of each month is designated as Missions
Sunday where missionaries, ministries, and projects are highlighted and
a special offering is taken. A Mission’s Convention is held once
a year that include guest missionary speakers, special music, and a colorful
flag parade with dress attire representing other countries. There is also
an opportunity to make Faith Promises to support our missions giving for
the year. At various times of the year there are some who will go on short-term
mission’s trips. Because of your continued support, faithful prayers,
and generous giving we are able to help keep missionaries on the field
and complete projects, thus reaping a harvest of souls!
