Shreve Community Church supports missions and missionaries on a local, national, and international level.
Missions are a vital part of our ministry at Shreve CC. Our desire is to fulfill the Great Commission and reach as many people as possible. We realize that we cannot do that on our own, therefore, we actively support a number of domestic and foreign missionaries so that they can take the Word of God around the world.
In conjunction with the monetary support we provide for our missionaries, we also strongly encourage our members to participate in mission trips both locally and in Cuba and Kenya. If you are interested in taking a mission trip and would like to request support, please contact the Mission Committee for more information.
Local missions are also very important to us as a church family. If you would like to get involved with one of our many outreach and missions opportunities, please refer to the list below!
