international ministry

Our city has become the home for many visitors from around the world. Many of the new arrivals find it difficult to build friendships and adapt to this different culture. It is the desire of our International Ministries to help them find a caring community where they can turn for help and support.

We offer a variety of opportunities for internationals to gather with us

WEEKLY

Badminton is a popular game around the world and we open our courts to the community on Sundays 3:00-6:00pm and Fridays 6:00-9:00pm. **Due to Covid we currently have to limit the amount of people in the gym. Please contact Pastor Sanjeev to inquire about availability.

MONTHLY

We meet on the second Friday evening of every month from 6:30-8:30 PM to play games, share snacks, and discuss helpful topics:
adapting to a new culture, parenting, navigating public education, community resources, managing your money, etc… Some nights we watch a movie or enjoy entertainment together.

QUARTERLY

We host international students from the UofM every quarter for a night of food and fun. These students are looking for connection and a home away from home. Help us make them welcome in this foreign country and show God’s love. Everyone is welcome. Upcoming dates are: April 8, July 8, and October 14.

We enjoy gathering to share seasonal and national celebrations:

Every year in February we celebrate the Lunar New Year with our Asian friends and invite everyone to join in a fun cultural event.
