GLOBAL
We are a local expression of the Church and therefore a part of God’s work in local expressions all over the world. Our goal is to engage everyone belonging to Christ in partnering with missionaries doing works of justice, mercy, and evangelism with those who are far from God.
PLACES
Places are strategic, intentional partnerships with Wesleyan missionaries who are working with local churches. We focus on these places with our resources and funding because they’re engaged in justice, mercy and evangelism through their local church.
PEOPLE
People are missionaries who are part of our church family doing work that we support and encourage. Their role is often training people for God’s work or teaching believers about life in God’s family.
PROJECTS
Projects are organizations we work with to accomplish things we care about like clean water, trafficking prevention, and economic development for disadvantaged groups of people. To apply as a team member for one of our projects this year, please contact [email protected] to receive an application and project manual.

Refugee Ministry
We partner with the Friendship Center in Grand Rapids as we periodically send a group of people over to serve dinners to local refugees. You can imagine the overwhelming sense of change and insecurity that comes from resettling as a refugee. We share radical love in practical ways through our relationships with these families who look to the Friendship Center for support and care. We also periodically welcome a refugee family through our partnership with Bethany Christian Services/PARA (Programs Assisting Refugee Acculturation). As a co-sponsor we help the family settle in to their new culture here in the Tri-Cities.
