Missions

 

Acts 1:8 Strategy

Our strategy is to "Reach the world from Centerton, Arkansas!" We want to reach our community, our state, our continent, and the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Check back often for updated information regarding direct mission trips, mission conferences, giving opportunities, and other mission related topics.

A Year of Missions

In the 2011–2012 church year, the pastoral team has invited the church to join them in going to more mission action locations than we have ever touched in a year. Brother Stuart and each of the associates will personally lead teams to several locations. Plan to be a part of one of these teams by getting your passport and beginning to explore the details of the projects planned. Pray that God will give you wisdom to see how your spiritual gifts, personal interests, and availability can be used on one of these teams.
