Step Into the Story

For they have gone out for the sake of the name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. Therefore we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth. 3 John 1:7-8 ESV

North American missionaries take the gospel to unreached communities throughout the U.S. and Canada. They need your prayers to open hearts and help them disciple new believers.

To fuel their work, missionaries also need your gifts to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering. This year's national offering goal is $78 million.
