“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Matthew 28:19-20

GLOBAL MISSIONS

The church’s mission is to reach out to everyone, everywhere. A leadership role in this is played by the Missions Group. We support several missionary families who are working to share the gospel with others.

Their 4 kids were born and raised in the Islands and they have spent the past 21 years in New Zealand, where they continue to assist the Pacific Island staff in their ministries, primarily through their leadership in student ministry in Papua New Guniea.
