Missions
Why Missions
Because God is a Missionary God, having left His throne in heaven and come to earth in order that He might redeem a people for Himself, displaying His great mercy to us, who were on the outside, we at New Covenant, have a burden that others might know Him. We strive to give 20-25% of our annual budget to missions work, for the proclamation of the Gospel and the ministry to the needy. Additionally, we also go as God sends us, to serve our community, our nation, and the world. At the bottom of the page are various ministries we support financially and in prayer.
