We believe that God wants relationship with His creation (worshipers and disciples) and has elected the church as His agent.

We believe that God calls individuals to specific ministries and He calls the local church to specific focuses. He has different tasks for different persons/local churches. (I Cor. 3:4-10)

We believe that all followers of Christ are responsible for missions including giving and praying.

We believe that basic discipleship includes the development of a balanced commitment to worldwide and local missions and evangelism. (Acts 1:8)

We believe that God loves the poor, oppressed, and the persecuted; and that He calls his followers to minister to the whole person - body, soul, and spirit.

We commit to mobilize (impart vision, train, send) the local church to involvement in missions.

We commit to raise up healthy churches with indigenous leadership who are able to function independently of foreign missionaries.

We commit to support efforts of the church to serve the needs of the whole person through relief and development.

We commit to proclaim the Gospel through the traditions and symbols of each culture to the extent that such practices are not unhealthy or unbiblical.

We commit to discover where God is working and to be supportive of that work and the building of the church.

From the formation of Zion Chapel as a local church, foreign missions have been a core value. God has consistently emphasized the vision of raising, training, sending out, and supporting persons who would be involved in world missions. We are currently focused on ministries in Central America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Future emphasis will be targeted toward unreached, under-evangelized people groups, the persecuted church, rapidly growing church-planting movements, and relief and development among suffering people.

Several persons and families from our congregation are serving as long term missionaries around the world. We also commission and send several individuals and short term mission teams each year to minister throughout various countries of the world.
