Missions

Why Missions? Jesus told his disciples to share good news of the Gospel to all nations. As the angel told the shepherds that first Christmas, the Savior is "for all people" (Luke 2:10). About 33 years later, after rising from the dead, Jesus told his disciples "In this way it has been written, that the Chirst would suffer and rise again from the dead the thid day, and that repentance unto forgiveness of sins is to be preached in His name to all nations, begining at Jerusalem." (Luke 24:46-47). Jesus earthly life started with an announcement to all nations and in his parting words before his ascention he called his church to missions. It is on God's heart to reach the world with the Gospel. At New Life we are blessed to participate in reaching the world through the missionaries we support. Below is a quick snap shot of the missionaries we support.
