Parkview Christian Church Missions Ministry sends money, prayers & service to different ministries around the world. PCC tithes over 10% of its annual budget to the Missions Team to distribute to those ministries so that the Gospel will be spread among God's people.
We keep in contact with these missions to find out their prayer requests and praises. In order to verify good stewardship, they also send us an annual report.
Many of the missionaries are in unsafe areas of the world and encounter countless obstacles everyday. More than anything, they need our prayers.
Listed below are the missions we support on a monthly basis.
