Missions

We define God's mission as all that God is doing in Jesus Christ through the power

of the Holy Spirit to accomplish his redemptive purposes for all of creation.


God calls us individually and collectively to participate in giving witness to his redemptive purposes in Jesus. We primarily participate in giving witness by obedience to three mandates/commissions found in Scripture:


The Great Creation/Cultural Mandate = Image God in creation & culture

(Gen 1:26-31; Gen 12:1-3)

The Great Commandment = Love God & love your neighbor

(Matt 22:34-40; Mk 12:28-34; Lk 10:25-37)

The Great Commission = Make disciples of all nations

(Matthew 28:16-20; Lk 10:1-12)

Local & World Missions

Local Missions

CLC offers financial and personal support for Love In Action. We also operate a bed ministry in house, providing twin and bunk beds at no cost to the community. Our S.W.A.T. ministry (Servants With Appropriate Tools) serves the community by building wheelchair ramps. 


Bed Ministry
Covenant Life Church (in cooperation with local organizations) makes and gives beds to children & adults in our surrounding areas who don’t have a bed to call their own. Since the inception of this program in 2010, we have given away over 700 beds (including mattresses, bedding, and pillows) to those in need.
