MISSIONS

The words of Jesus Christ, "Go, make disciples of all nations," have always been the heartbeat of GCA.

It has been our privilege to send many missionaries. The Gallop family served for many years in Niger.  Linda Collins served in the inner city in Denver.  In 1986, the Senior High youth group along with several adult leaders participated in a week-long missions trip to the Mexicali Valley in Baja California Norte, Mexico under the auspices of Azusa Pacific University. For over twenty years, we enjoyed the privilege of sending a team to the same small village of Tlaxcala.  Our ministry there grew from simply a Vacation Bible School program to various ministries for every age group in the village.  We also sent a team to Houma, Louisiana to help with the relief effort from Hurricane Katrina, and we have sent two teams to Ensenada, ministering much as we did in Tlaxcala.) GCA also enjoyed the opportunity to send college-age students and adults who so desired on short-term mission trips.

Below is a list of the mission organizations GCA supports with prayer and, in some cases, with financial support as GCA is able.  GCA also seeks to build long-term relationships with missionaries.
