About My Church Plant
Rejoice Church serves the Korean community and students from Korea in the Portland metro area and Vancouver, Wash. The goal of Rejoice Church is to expand the kingdom of God through the core values of our church, by the gospel of the kingdom of God, through Bible reading and prayer that is life-changing. We want to create an authentic community that is balanced and growing where the people of God and the community will rejoice for Jesus and restore the kingdom of God.
NAMB Church Planting
Demonstrated Christian character is essential for missionaries and chaplains to gain credibility and build community. A missionary is a person who, in response to God's call and gifting, leaves his or her comfort zone and crosses cultural, geographic or other barriers to proclaim the gospel and live out a Christian witness in obedience to the Great Commission. The North American Mission Board supports missionaries serving across the United States, Canada and their territories. Churches are the missionary incubators and sending centers for missionaries through the Southern Baptist Convention. Missionaries serve in a variety of settings and face tremendous challenges. But the rewards are tremendous and life-changing. Missionaries have the privilege to represent their church and their Father in sharing the gospel as the primary focus of their activity. If you are interested in pursuing next steps as a potential missionary or chaplain from your church, explore the possibilities at namb.net/send-me.
