Global Missions: January 10, 2024
The Global Team of CCC has as its purpose “To see Jesus’ redemptive power transform us and our broken world.”
In the coming weeks, there will be opportunities to become more involved at Centennial Covenant Church as we increase awareness and participation in God’s global mission. Contact the team at any time if you have a question, a particular interest, or just want to know more. Coffee is on us! GlobalTeamSend@centcov.org
COMING UP JANUARY 14!
Jon Hardin will be preaching from one of the Bible’s most interesting missionary stories — the book of Jonah. We’ll be discovering the way God has designed His mission to the world.
Be on the lookout for a new display in the lobby, and a table with more information about Global Outreach at Centennial!
Jon and Lynda Hardin
COMING ON JANUARY 21!
“Love Justice International works in over two dozen countries, training and placing monitors at strategic transit points (bus terminals, train stations) to identify and stop trafficking as it is occurring, BEFORE people are exploited. To date, we’ve intercepted over 50,000 individuals to prevent them from being trafficked. We’re able to collect immensely valuable data on traffickers and their networks, and we’ve helped authorities arrest over 1,400 suspects in connection with our anti-trafficking work. Love Justice was established with the opening of family homes in some of the poorest parts of the world, caring for orphaned and abandoned children. We also operate a school in South Asia, empowering students to become difference makers in the world through excellent education.”
Amberle Mangis will share about the work of LOVE Justice International and will be available after the service to answer more questions and tell you how you can be involved in saving people from slavery!

GETTING INVOLVED
We believe that there are 6 primary ways to get involved in Global Mission.
Nobody is designed for all, but all of us are designed for at least one.
Learn
There are a lot of resources to help us learn more. Try reaching out to the missionaries we support to learn more about them and contact our Global Team for more resources.
Pray
Prayer and Intercession is one of the most vital ways we can participate in God’s Global Mission. Try “adopting” one of our missionaries and commit to praying for them regularly.
Welcome
With the ease of International travel and communication, we have seen an increase in internationals visiting our country. This is a great opportunity to engage and create life-giving relationships with them. Try visiting an ethnic restaurant that you haven’t been to and get to know the staff or volunteer to host students from other countries.
Send
Giving of our resources is a very effective way of supporting ongoing missions across the world. Try supporting a missionary financially on a monthly basis or being a source of encouragement and support for them.
Mobilize
Advocating for our missionaries and encouraging others to get involved. Try getting involved in CCC’s Global Team.
Go
“Go” is the most traditional understanding of involvement in Global Mission. Try going on a short-term or mid term trip with CCC.
