Wendy Gornicz - Missions Coordinator
For over 100 years, Emmanuel Assembly has been a Missions-Minded Church. We have been giving financial and prayer support to missionaries both local and abroad for many years. Just like they did in the early church, God’s people today are called to give to missions so that the Gospel will spread throughout the world. At Emmanuel, we support missions organizations here in the local community as well as AG missionaries who travel abroad to various countries throughout the world.
Every November, we hold a Missions Conventions with a guest missionary visit each Sunday of the month. It is always a wonderful to hear their stories, testimonies and amazing work they are doing for God's Kingdom. Be on the lookout for information on the 2025 Missions Convention to be posted in the coming months on our website and facebook!
If you are interested in learning more or supporting missions, please reach out to the missions coordinator, call the church office or fill out the form at the bottom on this page.

Wait, what is Chi Alpha?
Chi Alpha is a network of Christian Missionaries that reach students in universities around the world. They are sponsored by the Assemblies of God.
Below is their mission statement:
"We reconcile students to Christ, equipping them through Spirit-Filled communities of prayer, worship, fellowship, discipleship and mission to transform the university, the marketplace, and the world."
One of the goals of Chi Alpha is for churches to Adopt-A-Campus near them and to pray for the students and look for ways to involve students in the local church.
