MISSIONS
Communion Church supports missionaries locally and worldwide as well as contributing to several local charities with our time and funds. These missionary families are those we currently support, along with some who for safety reasons and the nature of their mission work, we are not free to share details.
While we donate collectively as a church, we encourage you to prayerfully consider donating your own time and charitable giving to these families and ministries locally and worldwide.
