Our Missionaries and Supported Ministries
. . . for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” Romans 10:15
We regularly receive letters from the 14 missionary families we support all over the world. Pick up copies of our current letters in the lobby. We are blessed, as a church, to support our missionaries through donations as well as prayer. Each week we feature specific missionaries and ministries and ask you to pray for their specific needs.

JEWS FOR JESUS
Jewish people believing in Jesus has been a thing since, well, Jesus! But in 1973, it became the name of the organization founded by Dr. Moishe Rosen. We exist to support you in exploring Jewish life with faith in Jesus. Many Jewish people have never heard that following Jesus is a viable and thriving expression of Jewish life.
