Missions 2026

“Mission arises from the heart of God Himself and is communicated from His heart to ours.
Mission is the global outreach of the global people of a global God.”
Christopher J.H. Wright, The Mission of God’s People

Our heart is for Coleraine and our region to be transformed by the gospel of Jesus in the power of the Spirit. But more than that, we believe that God is always sending His people to ‘go and make disciples of all nations.’

At CCV we want to co-mission with God in his global mission through partnership, praying, and practical support. While some of us may be called to go into the nations long-term, our heart is that through short-term mission trips we all get the chance to serve those on the ground through ministry, and experience the grace of God at work across the globe.

Is God drawing your heart toward His heart for the nations?
How can you go, pray, resource, and support mission in the nations?
