Missions

Join the mission.

Missions is the heartbeat of God, and it is at the heart of all that we do as a church. We are called to share the Good News of Jesus in our local area, the United States and around the world. Through missions, the love of Jesus and tangible acts of service and compassion meet.

As we look to 2026, we have prayerfully considered opportunities where our resources and critical needs intersect. We are honored to return to serve alongside several of our long-term missionary partners, but we are also feeling the call to pursue new opportunities, specifically in several countries of the Asia Pacific region.

Why Asia Pacific? To reach the “never reached” – those who have never heard the name of Jesus. According to the Assemblies of God World Missions (AGWM), 95% of the population in the Asia Pacific region (nearly 1 billion people) are considered totally spiritually lost. With that, we are committed to creating meaningful opportunities for individuals to use their unique talents to reach people for Jesus…one person at a time.

We are all called, and everyone who chooses to go is changed. Will you GO and share your faith?
"To do more than we have ever done before, we will need to pray more than we have ever prayed, give more than we have ever given, and be willing to go where we have never gone."
- Shane Wilson, Lead Pastor

We will be partnering with our missionaries, Tim and Ellenora Bentley, to help finish the construction of a church building for a thriving Macedonian church in Strumica, a town outside the capital city of Skopje. This church has been rapidly growing and is in dire need of a larger worship space. Construction of their new church building stalled during COVID and, with their economy struggling to rebound, they have been unable to restart the project. We will also have the opportunity to assist with outreach at a Roma church in the nearby town of Prilep. The Roma people are a very marginalized people group.
RAJASTHAN, INDIA
Date: October
Team Type: Vocational Training (Adults)
Trip Status: Registration Coming Soon

Taking a stand against sex trafficking is a priority of CLA. In support of this, we have taken several teams over the past four years to Ashagaon Village (Village of Hope). This life-changing organization is helping women rebuild their lives after being rescued from the sex trafficking industry by teaching them critical vocational skills and sharing the hope of Jesus. This team will provide training in a variety of important vocations, such as baking, hairdressing, leadership and computer training – or any valuable skills that our team members may have experience in.
TSUKUBA, JAPAN
Date: November
Team Type: Evangelism & Outreach (Adults)
Trip Status: Registration Coming Soon

This will be our first missions team to Japan, and the need is great – only 0.5% of the Japanese people are Christians. Our team will help the international church in Tsukuba prepare for their major Christmas outreach. We will help hang thousands of Christmas lights outside the church and distribute invitations to a Christmas light extravaganza. In Japanese culture, this kind of event draws large crowds and gives the church an opportunity to connect with many people they would never have the chance to connect with otherwise.
