Missions is pastored by Haig Shishmanian, who focuses on coaching, mentoring, and equipping people to pursue God’s call and mission in their lives. Missions is accomplished through the gifts and strengths of COA Members.
COA invests in financially giving toward ministries around the world involved in work that our family wishes we could be involved in but are limited in by geography!
Projects that contribute toward the mission of extending the Kingdom in our area are planned by the Missions Committee (including Local Charity and Evangelism) which meets on a monthly basis to prayerfully plan service, charity, and fundraising projects, and is overseen by Pastor Daniel and Haig.
COA has recently empowered and sent off its first missionary, Alina Karimian, who will be living in Armenia with mature women of God, serving the needs of less fortunate, and focusing on investing in individuals who would similarly live out the love of God in the ways that Alina has been blessed.
COA has also sent teams to Armenia, Canada, France, Tijuana, Turkey, and other areas in order to empower Christians in accomplishing the mission of God in their communities.
Be still, and know that I am God!
I will be honored by every nation.
I will be honored throughout the world.
– Psalm 46:10 (NLT)
