Global Missions

Pasadena Community Church has covenants with 5 missionaries on 5 continents.

Lots of Ways to Get Involved.

Missionaries are an extension of our love and ministry in Jesus’ name, to places where we cannot go and serve. Pasadena has a covenant to support each of these missionaries. We support these missionaries with our gifts and prayers.
