2024 Mission Conference
March 13-17

Open Doors

Colossians 4.2-4: “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. 3 At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— 4 that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak.”

The annual mission conference is an important event in the life that challenges us in meeting the Great Commission to “go and make disciples of all nations”.

CMPC held its first annual mission conference in 1974 with a goal to raise $5,000 for world missions. God moved in a powerful way, and more than $20,000 was pledged, enabling the church to support 11 missionaries. Since 2010 our annual Mission Faith Promise has ranged between $320,000 to $412,000. Today we support over 60 missionaries in over 21 countries. Beyond the faith promise, we have typically sent over 80 church members on mission journeys each year.

Each year we invite a well-known speaker to bring a message on missions. Additionally, we have many of our CMPC supported missionaries with us so that we can connect with them over coffee, meals, and various fellowship opportunities.

The 2024 speaker is Mark Bates, MTW’s Senior Director of U.S. Operations

Faith Promise Giving

CMPC supports our missionaries through three important means: The Faith Promise, prayer and sending short-term mission teams.

The Faith Promise: This is our sole means of supporting our missionaries financially. This offering is comprised of individual commitments to give a specific amount to cross-cultural missions, as God provides, over the next year.

It should expand, rather than decrease or replace, our normal giving. This commitment is non-binding, but seriously undertaken. There are many creative ways we can free up resources in order to control our spending habits, adjust our lifestyle and make personal sacrifices. These may lead us to cutback on things like cable TV, magazine subscriptions, entertainment, eating out, new clothes, etc. While these things fade away, the work of missions has eternal results. Prayerfully consider what amount the Lord would have you commit to missions in the year between the conferences. Join us in this challenging exercise of trusting God to provide all our needs as we seek to partner with the work of the gospel overseas. And remember: The Faith Promise benefits the giver as well as the recipient (Acts 20:35)!
