Short-term mission teams for 2019
We are excited to train and deploy 77 people who have joined our short-term missions program in 2019. They will be going to five locations where the gospel of GOOD NEWS is needed in order for people to experience the transforming power of Jesus in their lives. Please join us in prayer and financial support as we send these missionaries out.
