What is a Faith Promise?

A faith promise is a sacred act, a spiritual agreement between you and God as you commit to give regularly to help fulfill God’s plan to reach a lost world.

Every family can make a faith promise or each member – even children – can make individual faith promises.

No amount is too small. God honors and uses our obedience more than the amount of our giving. Limited income should not prevent anyone from making a faith promise. Jesus said that the widow that gave just a “mite” in the offering gave more than all the others because she gave all she had.

Through faith promises church leaders are able to determine how much the church can commit to support missions. Each faith promise is made for a specific period of time, usually six months or one year. Some will give each week; others bi-weekly or monthly. People often give their faith promises during Missions Sunday.

A faith promise gives you an opportunity to participate in the Great Commission. As you do your part in missions, His purpose will be accomplished both in your life and in the lives of others around the world.

World Missions

We are proclaiming the message of Jesus Christ to the spiritually lost in all the world through every available means.

These four words describe our mission: reaching, planting, training and touching. These are four biblical mandates we strive to obey. They are not four separate objectives, but an integrated, and comprehensive, God-given plan. They represent the four activities of our missionaries: evangelizing, establishing churches, training national leaders, and expressing Christ’s compassion to poor and suffering people. Each of these is right in itself. However, what is distinctive about our mission is how they are integrated – working together to achieve our primary objective.

The heart of our mission is establishing the church. Each of the other elements of our mission contributes to that end, and each is served by it as well.

Our missionary founding fathers were led by the Holy Spirit to do what the Word of God taught in the Book of Acts by establishing churches after the New Testament pattern. This has always been and will continue to be the heart of our mission.
