Missions
When Jesus came to the earth, He turned the world’s value system upside-down. Instead of living for Himself, Jesus modeled a life of servanthood and love. Instead of spending time with those in positions of power, Jesus chose to spend time with the hopeless. In the end, Jesus gave his life so that the whole world might come to know God.
As followers of Christ, we have been called to share this message with the world. This happens as we reach out to others through our words and our actions. Serving on a mission provides an incredible opportunity to share the hope that we have in practical ways and see lives changed.
Join one of our local, regional, or international mission teams and make a difference in the world.

Micro-Missions
Throughout our city, there are people in need physically and spiritually. Micro-missions give us the chance to meet those in need with a paintbrush, hug, food or prayer.
- Micro-Missions are one-day service projects which are scheduled every other month by the New Hope staff. Team members meet at their campus for a brief orientation and then travel together to the project site.
- Church-wide Micro-Missions take place throughout the year and include: Operation Backpack (collect school supplies), Thanksgiving food drive (collect non-perishable food items for the holidays), Adopt-a-family for Christmas (provide gifts for families in our area), and Ronald McDonald House (preparing meals for the entire month of April).

Short Term Mission Trips
Christ gave His disciples the charge to bring the gospel to the far ends of the earth. As you grow in your relationship with Christ, our desire is that you would take a step of faith and participate on a short-term mission trip. This will help to expand your worldview, experience the global body of Christ, and be open to what the Lord is calling you to do. Short term mission trips may include opportunities to provide medical assistance, disaster relief, help with building construction, or teach the Word of God. Currently we are sending teams to Joplin, Nicaragua, India and Haiti. For information on any of these trips please contact Paula at pwalker@newhopechurch.tv.Joplin, Missouri
Dates: March 18-23, 2013 (7 spots available)
April 1-6, 2013 (team is full)
Cost: Approximately $300 / person
A tornado ripped through a densely populated Joplin, Missouri in May of 2011, destroying or damaging as many as a quarter of the buildings in the southwest Missouri city of about 50,000 people. Much of the city’s south side was leveled, with churches, schools businesses and homes reduced to ruins. We are partnering with Samaritan’s Purse to rebuild. Minimum age for volunteers is 14. Children 14-17 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Leon, Nicaragua
Dates: July 13-20, 2013
Cost: Approximately $2000 / person
Whether hugging a child at the dump school, visiting babies and children at the local orphanages or assisting laborers at Villa Esperanza (Village of Hope), there will be many opportunities for you and your team to demonstrate God's love to people in Managua. Through construction, medical clinics, and Bible lessons for children your team will reach out to people in the community of Leon with the love of God as you build relationships that will last all of eternity. Minimum age for volunteers is 14. Children 14-16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

India
Dates: October 6-19, 2013
Cost: Approximately $3000 / person
Even though much economic development has occurred in India, there are still areas of India unreached by this development. It is estimated over 922 million people in India have not heard the Christian Gospel. A short-term mission trip is an opportunity to learn more about the culture in India and strengthen the relationship between CICM and its partners.
Haiti
Dates: November 9-16, 2013
Cost: Approximately $2000 / person
In 2010 an earthquake devastated the country of Haiti. As a result New Hope sent two teams in order to help with relief and to help rebuild. What we found was a young man on fire for God. With a little support from other churches, Caleb established a feeding program for children in the community of Jacmel. Since that time New Hope has made the commitment to build a church with Caleb and serve any way we can. Volunteers on this trip will work on a variety of projects identified daily. These projects can include helping with construction, a medical clinic, teaching Bible school to children, serving meals in the feeding program, or playing soccer in tent city. Orientation meeting: April 20th, 288 Campus, Classroom 2, 5:45 pm.
