Global Missions

We are passionate about helping people Know God and actively follow Him—both here in North Carolina and around the world. Jesus commanded us to make disciples of all nations, and we take that calling seriously.
Through prayer, giving, and going, we support missionaries who are sharing the Gospel and making an eternal impact across the globe.
Your faithful tithes and offerings help provide for these missionaries as they bring the hope of Christ to communities in need. Thank you for being a part of God’s mission to reach the world with His love.
