Get involved in Missions!
PRAY- our missionaries need your prayer that their work has impact and continues to spread God's word and for their health and safety and often other specific prayer needs. You may choose to support one mission family closely in prayer by joining their e-mail updates or reading their blogs.
GIVE- missionaries always need financial support but you can also help by purchasing school or baby items for Ernie and Marilyn's school bag and baby bundle missions or many other ways.
GO-Join a team - Short term mission trips may need you!These teams are made up of people of all ages. From children ministering in Vanuatu to retired people encouraging missionaries in PNG. Short term trips are organised for a range for a range of reasons including building projects, children training, working in orphanages, or simply for the experience, as we believe it changes lives.
