Learn About Our Mission
Christ sent us to disciple the nations (Matt. 28:19). Yet 1/3 of humanity has yet to hear. We exist to proclaim Christ among every people.
Support Missionaries
God calls us to support missions (3 John 6). By supporting missionaries and their ministries, you’re advancing the gospel among the lost and the unreached.
Serve in Global Missions
Is God leading you to the nations? Working with the church, we’ll help you find your role in the Great Commission.
PRAY FOR THE NATIONS
Join a Prayer Movement for Missions
Jesus called us pray for laborers for the global harvest. Sign up for pray with us each morning at 9:38 a.m. for new missionaries to be sent.
