MISAWA CHRISTIAN CENTER REACHES OUT

There have been several significant events at the Misawa Center recently

that impacted the community. On Easter, they ministered at an area or-

phanage by serving lunch, giving a message, an Easter egg hunt and games,

and giving gifts to the staff and children. In May, a table was set up at the

BX to promote the ministries of the Center and also giving out tracts. It

was a great way to tell their story. Also in May, the mothers were honored

with a meal planned and served by the men of the church. It has been a

busy but blessed season.

May was a very busy month for New Hope. May 6th, mem-

bers were very involved in the community production at

Terrace Playhouse of “Crowns”, a gospel music celebra-

tion.

The pictures below show two children being dedicated to

the Lord and two young men being presented their

baptismal certificates.

May also saw New Hope

mothers being honored,

school children’s

accomplishments

recognized and a

women’s breakfast on April 18th. We thank God for all that has been accomplished!

Our Mission is connecting

military, veterans, and their

communities with a missional,

Christian family. We strive to

reach and involve armed

forces personnel in a Cornelius

style ministry form the time

they take the oath of service,

throughout all deployments,

until finally returning to contin-

ued fruitful service in their

home church. Our core values

are to establish and maintain

caring New Testament fellow-

ships, in cooperation with

like minded organizations, to

reach all people for Christ

and to train lay leaders for

service.

We work to achieve this by

maintaining a network of wor-

ship centers in the large mil-

coms overseas and planting

ministries in the USA or part-

nering with established ones

that have a passion for our

armed forces. A full range of

ministries is offered to include

worship, discipleship, training,

ministerial credentialing, youth

camps, retreats and confer-

ences, and leadership training.

Service members, veterans and

families always reach local com-

munity members and become

salt and light they live.

CONGRATULATIONS FOR MILESTONES ACHIEVED

We congratulate and celebrate these for their incredible achievements!
