GoMission.Church is a network made for local churches who share a big mission. Together we connect people to more than good causes. We hold fast to the belief that God wants us all to be involved in the lives of others and participate with Him in what He is doing in the world.
The focus on personal connections is the reason we only direct support to ministries and missionary assets that we know and have relationships with.
We physically GO to every place where support is needed, to meet the people, assess the needs, and listen to the Spirit of God about how He desires us to partner in His work. We KNOW every leader of every project and are working with them to transform the world with the good news of Jesus Christ.
This model of Church missions has been life-bringing to both those who give and those who receive. We are consistently learning that God is more concerned about our hearts than He is about our money. His desire is for us to care about, and be involved in the lives of people around the world and across the street.
To participate with Him in caring for their needs and improving their lives with the Gospel of His son, Jesus. Every Place, every Project, every Campaign, and every sponsorship is about connecting our shared faith in Jesus Christ to people who need to know Him and be transformed by Him.
This is GoMission.Church. We're glad you're here!
While our bee hives that help support the ministry head into the off-season as the weather shifts giving us a much needed break from tending the hives, Gathering Table as a ministry continues to run “business as usual” with bi-monthly Pop-Up dinners and team meetings, as the Lord continues to teach us as a ministry team how to share the gospel in our community both with our words and actions within the context of community gathered around local agriculture, with “great patience and careful instruction”. “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.” (2 Timothy 4:2) All the while the Lord continues to provide for all the needs of the ministry according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus. Here are some highlights of God’s faithfulness that reminds us that we can depend fully on him in every aspect of our lives! Two Years at the Collective 103 Shop The Lord has been faithful since opening the door in September 2024 for the Gathering Table ministry to have a year-round spot in Old Town Clovis, as a way of supporting the ministry through honey and spoon ring sales and to invite the community to upcoming Pop-Up Dinners. The spot at The Collective 103 continues to help support costs of the ministry and we are seeing guests come to the dinners from invitations at the shop! 450 Pounds of Honey Harvested this Year This past week we had our last honey harvest of the year, topping last year’s total of around 400 pounds with a total of 450 pounds this year! Most of the honey is sold at the Collective 103 shop. Thank you Jesus! 18 Bee Hives Going into the Winter After a challenging end of summer for the bee hives battling chalkbrood disease that wiped out around 15-25 percent of our hives, in addition to challenges with mites and the summer heat, God has helped preserve 18 bee hives going into the winter as the weather starts to change this coming week. The real test will be over the next 3-4 weeks to see how many hives make it through the cold. We are praying that at least 15 strong hives make it to Almond pollination in February, which is another way the bee hives help generate funds for supporting the ministry activities. Ways You Can Support the Ministry There are currently two campaigns on Go Mission for Gathering Table to help the ministry finish out this year strong and head into 2027 with a boost.

CVSOM Class of 2026 Graduated this past July with 16 Students from 10 different churches ! What a powerful evening we had praying over these amazing men and women ready to step into whatever ministry God calls them to do. Beginning in March until the last Sunday in August we visited 16 churches to present CVSOM to these congregations and talked to many visitors to our booth about the school . Our purpose is to help Pastors raise up leaders in their congregations to fulfil their ministry callings in and through their church family. In September CVSOM Class of 2027 began with 13 students from 11 different churches! We began our School year with the Old Testament Survey Course for 5 weeks, followed by a weekend Seminar “Seeing the World through Hebrew Eyes and are currently on our 4th week of The New Testament Survey Course. They will finish their 1st Trimester with a weekend seminar on Biblical Interpretation - Always an eye opening course that is life changing in how we approach the scriptures. What a blessing it is to see the excitement developing in the hearts of our students.
“Be devoted to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving, praying at the same time for us also, that God may open for us a door of the message, to speak the mystery of Christ…” (Colossians 4:2-3 LEB) God has called each person in His Church to take part in His Mission. Through Jesus God is “making all things new”, and until the new creation arrives in its fullness God uses his willing people to advance his kingdom. Every follower of Jesus has a part to play, and every one of us needs the community of God’s church to help us walk out obedience to Him. This means that all of us have two simultaneous roles in the Mission of God: obedience to the work God has given us to do, and to support, encourage, and pray for our brothers and sisters as they do the work God has called them to. Working at GoMission has given us an awesome opportunity to see both sides of participation in the work of the Kingdom. In this process we’ve been deeply encouraged by what we see others doing in obedience to Jesus! Here are some examples from the last few weeks that give a little insight into what some of our day to day looks like working for GoMission! Natalie with Embrace Grace Our friend Natalie recently took a position with Embrace Grace, as the regional director for Nashville Tennessee! Embrace Grace is a ministry that equips churches to love and support single mothers and mothers to be! Before she set off, we got to sit down with Natalie and hear the story of how God has been calling her to this ministry. It turns out that God has been preparing her for a while! You can listen to Natalie’s Embrace Grace Story here! As Natalie shared about her desire to gather a community of support, we were able to develop a GoMission page and some printed materials to help the church partner with her through prayer, financial support and the sharing of testimonies! Check out Natalie’s GoMission Page! It was so fun to work alongside Natalie over the last month before she moved. We got to hear about the different conversations she was having each week, and all the people who were excited to come alongside her! We even had a chance to go to her send off party and join the many people who were there to show their love and support for Natalie! It is such a blessing to walk with someone who is already a friend, and watch God open doors and fill His church with excitement for what He is doing in His kingdom, through His daughter! Jeff and Kristy with Gathering Table We also had the opportunity to attend a Gathering Table Dinner a few weeks ago, and see our good friends Jeff and Kristy in action! The Gathering Table has been around for a few years now, exploring creative ways to share the gospel right here in Clovis! Check out Gathering Table’s GoMission Page! A Gathering Table Pop-Up Dinner brings people from different walks of life, together around one table. Jeff and Kristy do a great job of creating a welcoming environment where everyone has an opportunity to share about their life, in ways they may not normally get to. Towards the end of the meal, they take time to share a word of encouragement and hope around the gospel of Jesus. It’s amazing how much people willingly opened up, with just a few simple questions, making a way for real conversation about Jesus. We are excited about the future of what Jeff and Kristy are doing! If you’re interested in attending a Pop-Up Dinner click here! It has been such a gift to be able to walk alongside people who are saying “Yes!” to Jesus. All these opportunities to support others in their work also reminds us of all the people praying for, encouraging, and supporting us. Thank you all so much! We feel that God is giving us a unique chance to think about this dual work of personal obedience and supporting others, and giving us time to pray and think about new ways to connect with all of you as we get ready to go to Argentina! How you can be praying for us: As we work towards the future of GoMission, be praying for wisdom and for God to lead us! We are continuing to pray about our move to Argentina in June and looking at another short term trip before then! Please pray for our transition and the Vineyard Churches in Argentina! Please be praying for the other work we are a part of right now especially: guys/girls discipleship group, our church family, and outreach to Fresno State.
