We believe that in order to glorify God we must make Jesus Christ
known to all persons: loving them, winning them, discipling them,
empowering them for ministry in the church and a life mission in
the world. The Alliance supports our missionaries through the Great
Commission Fund (GCF), a fund that churches nationwide can give
to, so that they don't have to raise support.
Our Westview family is ministering in the United States and around
the world! We encourage you to contact them to be put on their support
list directly.
If you think you feel called to missions or ministry, please contact
the church office to receive more information on how to form this
call into a reality. You can also visit the C&MA's web site,
www.called2serve.org.
You will join dozens of Westview members who have answered the call
to get the job of discipling done worldwide!
