Missions

The congregation of Eastview Christian Church is committed to spreading

God's Word throughout the local area and world wide. One way this is accomplished

is through regular support of selected missions and ministries. 13% of the general income

of the church is given to missions, along with some one-time gifts and support throughout the year.

Members of the congregation also participate in at least one mission trip per year.

Several members of the Eastview family are currently serving on the mission field

or have gone into fulltime church ministries.

The following organizations are supported by Eastview Christian Church on a monthly basis:

"Evangelizing and Equipping Native Americans for Christ"

The American Indian Christian Mission is located near Show Low, Arizona in the northeastern part of the state.

The ministry reaches children and their families from both the Navajo and White Mountain Apache reservations through

a boarding school, a mobile bus ministry and summer programs. For more information: www.aicm.org
