Serve the World
Serving the World
The bible tells us in, Act 1:8, that serving does not end with just those in our immediate community: But you will receive power, the Holy Spirit coming upon you, and you will be witnesses of Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. We are all called to serve, but some are called to serve in foreign lands. Here at COTC we have come along side and partnered with many missionaries spreading the Gospel in other areas and cultures. We hope to continue reaching out to the lost and needy in other parts of the world through their efforts.
