Mission Spotlight

Christian Mission To Gaza

Pastor Hanna Massad

Jesus is proclaimed and His love made real through Christian Mission to Gaza. CMG stands in the gap for thousands of refugees in Gaza and Jordan. These men, women, and children have witnessed unspeakable pain and, without outside aid, many would not make it. The Lord continues to enable CMG to reach out in His name to desperate civilians of Gaza and refugees from Iraq and Syria in Jordan. “I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat… Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me.” (Matthew 25:35, 40) As they bring together Roman Catholics, Greek Orthodox, and Protestants to provide thousands of hot meals and the gospel, Muslims are saying with amazement, “Our own people have forgotten us but not you Christians!” Praise God for CMG’s witness. And pray for lasting peace and stability for the millions of Palestinians who have lost their loved ones and homes.

Spring 2025 Prayer Guide

Invitation to Prayer

Join Our Prayer Team!



"Serving as a member of the NPC Prayer Team has been a privilege and has helped transform my prayer life in numerous ways. Having a connected group that regularly meets to pray over the needs of our community provides structure and encouragement for my commitment to prayer. In addition, hearing fellow team members praying has helped me find my voice and increased my comfort in praying aloud. Learning the prayer requests of our church and community gives me more awareness of the needs, making me much more empathic. Most significantly, praying for the NPC community's concerns humbly allows me to serve and see how God faithfully hears our prayers."
