MISSIONS
Our vision for missions is that our people will have God's heart for the lost and be compelled to take action (pray, give, go), both here and all over the world. If you would like more information about any of the missions we are invovled in or would like to support one of them.

Nicaragua:
Vision: To partner with ORPHANetwork & Verbo Church to minister to the 103 orphans living at the orphanage in Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua; to help with evangelistic outreaches in the nearby village of Betania through offering medical clinics, children's activities, and construction on a new church building. Most people in this area of Nicaragua are ethnically Miskito, an unreached people group. Many need to hear the Gospel for the first time. Get involved through monthly orphan sponsorship or joining the next trip!
England:
Vision: To partner with King's Church in Portsmouth, England as a resource to help them in the community outreach that they regularly engage in as a church. The church is located in a low-income neighborhood called Somerstown, and outreaches include children's evangelism, single moms/single dads groups, and hands-on service projects in the housing projects. We want to help King's Church bring God's light to those living in spiritual darkness! Get involved by praying regularly or joining the next trip!
Niger:
Vision: To partner with World Outreach Mission in Niger, Africa to reach the Fulani people, an unreached nomadic tribe in Eastern Niger. Niger is one of the poorest countries in the world with most people surviving on less than $1 (USD) per day. Yet, there has been an unbelievable hunger for the Gospel in recent days, and our missionaries there focus on evangelistic outreach and leadership development. We also help financially sponsor an orphanage committed to raising up children to be mighty men and women of God in Agadez, Niger. Get involved by praying regularly or giving a monthly financial gift.
Mexico:
Vision: To partner with the local church Familia Nueva Vida in Mexico City, Mexico to help them effectively reach their community through leadership development, evangelistic outreach, and facility construction projects. This church is located in a poverty-stricken neighborhood, where the need is desperate for families to learn how to be healthy and have a vibrant relationship with Christ. Get involved by praying regularly or joining the next trip!
Local Outreach: We also have a heart to reach our city and the New River Valley and practice "missions" right here at home. These are some other missions areas that we are involved in locally.
International Students Ministry: We have a team of people committed to reach out to International Students that have come to our area to study at Radford University, Virginia Tech, and New River Community College. This ministry reaches out by donating 'welcome baskets' to new international students, sponsoring bi-monthly Dinner & Discussion events, and providing Friendship Partners to interested students.
Roanoke Rescue Mission: Our youth team is involved in running a kid's summer camp program for one week each summer for homeless families that are temporarily living at the Roanoke Rescue Mission. While the kids are at the all-day camp, their parents are able to look for jobs, housing, and other immediate needs they have.
Pregnancy Resource Center: We actively support our local Pregnancy Resource Center, which provides services to men and women facing an unplanned pregnancy. We do this through financial commitments, providing volunteers, hosting Walk for Life annual event, and referring people to their clinic.
Harvest Festival: We partner with Main Street Radford every year in October to provide an event for children in Radford, through games, popcorn, face painting, and a chance for our church family to interact with the community to share God's love.
