Missions

Local & International

Clovis Christian Church affirms the definition of “missions” to be an evangelistic endeavor outside our local congregation to fulfill the Great Commission by proclaiming the gospel of Christ, making disciples and gathering these disciples into local bodies, while relating to the needs of the total person (spiritual, physical, emotional, and social).

Vision
The Missions Board seeks to promote missions and ministry activities that win individuals to the Lord, equip them in the faith and establish churches that have the same aim in every tribe, tongue, people and nation (Matthew 28: 18-20, Acts 1:8, Acts 14:21-23, Romans 15: 19-21 and Revelation 5:9)

Mission
To be led by the Holy Spirit in Educating, Equipping and Mobilizing the body. The Missions Board will achieve this through: Prioritizing engagement, support, organization and leading of missions/ministries that target unreached people groups internationally and domestically·
