Missions Weekend

The world is coming to Cedar Rapids on June 25-27 for New Covenant's Missions Weekend.

New Covenant's network of more than 30 missionaries around the globe have a front-row seat to seeing God at work. We have the great privilege of joining Him in this important work by partnering with Global Partners who are serving around the world. These Global Partners are rich with experiences and stories that will open your eyes to the power of the Gospel.

Fifteen Global Partners have made plans to be in Cedar Rapids for Missions Weekend -- more than we've ever hosted at one time -- and of course we are excited and expectant of great things to come from this gathering. The partners will share their stories, creating a variety of opportunities for us to meet with them in a variety of venues, settings, and timeframes over the course of the weekend. Plan now to be a part of Missions Weekend 2021. 

Our weekend kicks off with a festive Global Partner Dinner on Friday, June 25. 

  • Dinner | 5:30-6:15 PM in the High School Room
  • Breakout Sessions with the individual Global Partners held in Rooms Y201-Y207
  • Register for dinner and child care. More info and register online. Child care available if you register by June 14. Catered dinner - $10/person

If you prefer the more intimate setting of a Small Group Gathering to get to know people, we will have small gatherings taking place throughout the day on Saturday, June 26. 

  • Various times and places; more details coming soon. 
  • If you would like to host a gathering - perhaps a morning coffee or an evening dessert, email Pat Rieck. We have many Global Partners awaiting a host.

Missions Sunday, June 27, is a fun and easy way to meet and learn about our Global Partners. As soon as you walk in the door, you'll see Main Street full of display tables to provide a casual opportunity for you to say "hi" and get a visual glimpse of what our Partners do in the field. In our Worship Services, you'll hear Rick Griffith's heart for missions. Classrooms in the youth wing will host various Global Partners for you to meet.

  • Global Partner Rick Griffith Preaching | 9:00 or 10:30 AM.
  • Main Street Connections: Stop by tables and get to know our Partners after each service.
  • Classroom Presentations - Various partners will share during the 9:00 and 10:30 AM services.

Get activated in the world! Plan now to attend one or all of these connecting events.
