We are dedicated to fulfilling the Great Commission by sharing the love of Jesus while being a joy to our city and being sent to the nations.

Missions Opportunities at Houston Northeast

The gospel was never meant to stay inside the church walls.

We believe God uses ordinary conversations to bring extraordinary hope. This year, our churchwide goal is to share the full gospel 5,000 times.

Every conversation matters. Every step of obedience counts. When you share the gospel—at work, at school, in your neighborhood, on a mission trip, or wherever God leads—you can tell us by filling out the digital form.

Together, we’re reaching those who are near to us but far from God and trusting God for lasting fruit.

Mission Initiatives

Through our Greatest Gift to Jesus missions offering, we are able to cap the costs of mission trips again this year. Domestic trips will cost you only $750 and international trips are a maximum of $1750.


In addition the these cost caps for everyone, we are also offering these exciting incentives:

Student Scholarships
In 2026, we are offering opportunities that give students avenues to lower their overall trip cost while also equipping and challenging them to grow in preparation for their trip. There are multiple that empower students to earn up to 50% off their trip!  For details, email Matheu Scott.

Head of Household Initiative
The Head of Household Initiative is a special opportunity for members of Houston Northeast who are the head of their household and have never experienced a mission trip. This program covers the entire cost of a mission trip, making it easier than ever to take your first step into missions. For more information, contact Justin Graham.

Local Evangelism

Our local evangelism efforts are centered on sharing the life-changing message of Jesus with those who are near to us but far from God. Through building relationships and boldly sharing the gospel, we pray many experience the transformative love of Christ. Whether through outreach events, personal connections, or door-to-door ministry, we believe evangelism begins right where God has placed us.

Global Missions

Our global missions focus on spreading the gospel beyond Northeast Houston by partnering with international organizations and missionaries to share the hope of Christ with communities around the world. Through these partnerships, we are committed to making disciples and bringing the hope of Jesus to the nations.

Whether you're seeking encouragement, motivation, or a glimpse into the heart of missions, these testimonies reveal how one simple "Yes" can create a ripple effect of hope and impact around the world.

Who am I? I’m not even qualified, you know? And all I did was put my yes on the table.
