Registration for our 2026 Puerto Rico Mission Trip is now open. You can register in the church app. The trip is July 6-13. We will be serving Iglesia Bautista Castillo Fuerte by doing work on their church property and building to include yard work, pressure washing, painting (inside and out), and light interior construction to prepare classrooms using existing space. We will be working with church planters Christian and Valeria Acevedo and their young church in Gurabo. The cost of the trip is $900. This will include airfare, lodging, ground transportation, and most meals. You will need spending money for purchasing any meals you may need during travel. Financial assistance may be available if needed. If you are unable to go but are interested in providing financial assistance for someone else to go, please contact Pastor Adam. A deposit of $150 is required to secure your spot for the trip so that we can go ahead and purchase airfare. Three remaining payments of $250 each will be due by March 29, April 26, and May 31. Payments should be made by placing your payment in the church offering plate or by turning it in to the church office. Please label all payments as "Puerto Rico Mission trip."

One of the groups we offer in the Goshen app is our Prayer Community. We encourage you to join this group and use this tool for your prayer requests.

The Children’s Ministry is urgently seeking volunteers to help with both Sunday school and Awana programs. These ministries are vital in providing a nurturing and supportive environment for children to grow in their faith, but they cannot thrive without the dedication and service of volunteers.
