We are looking forward to LoveLOUD 2022, and we hope each of our churches will choose to participate. If your church would like to feed the staff of one of our local schools the week of August 22-26 (Chick-fil-A will be cooking the food), please call our CRBA office and claim the school you wish to serve. The church’s responsibility will be to pick up the food from Chick-fil-A on the date and time assigned (the church will be responsible for paying for the food), deliver it to the school, and serve it if allowed. This is a great opportunity for your church to be involved in missions in our own community. Call today!

We are excited we will be taking a team to Kisumu, Kenya, this November. We will be building homes for those in need, which will also be used for Bible Studies and Church Plants. In addition to providing homes, there will be opportunities for personal evangelism, prayer walking, preaching, and teaching. The cost is approximately $2,400 (cost may vary due to rising fuel prices). For more information and to register, please call our CRBA office.
The deadline to sign up with a $500 deposit is August 15th.
Please note, as of right now, Kenya requires all travelers to be vaccinated. This guideline is subject to change.
