Global Missions

CHANGING LIVES....TOGETHER.
In our home, the New Year celebration is always one of hope. We celebrate the presence and purpose of God throughout the concluding year and are reminded of His blessings and grace we experienced. Looking forward, we are excited to discover the promise of God in a new season. And, without fail, our preparation includes an evaluation of our annual missions giving.

Mission participation embraces the reality that the Church of God of Prophecy is a missionary movement, and our priority has always been missions. It embraces an evangelism that spreads the message of God's eternal rescue, from wherever believers in Christ are to the farthest places and people of the world; it is at the center of divine significance. God wants every person, everywhere, to be reached with His life-altering message of salvation. Our vision of what God desires for human beings is not limited by personality, geography, nationality, language, culture, race, education, income, or religion. Its scope is universal. Its reach is global. Its intent is world-encompassing. Its perspective is personal.  Its purpose is transformational.

Empowered by the continuing experience of Christ's personal and powerful presence, we proclaim Him to all people with the Spirit's anointing, the Father's express approval, in spoken words and acts of mercy and power. Participation in the mission is urgent.

We are all participants as we mobilize to pray for missionaries and the global spreading of the message of Jesus. By prayer and support, mission workers take the message of God's love to people in other parts of the world including Nicaragua, Indonesia, New Zealand, Congo Brazzaville, Georgia, Peru, Dominica; inclusive of 130 nations around the globe. We are connected to our mission workers, personally, and we become missionaries living purposefully, generously, and sacrificially, so Jesus will be known everywhere.

Blessings in the presence and purpose of God in 2013,
