Missions & Outreach


A Church on Mission

Heritage is a God-centered, great commission congregation. We exist because God is a missional God, on mission to redeem everything to himself. Everything we do, whether as individuals or a corporate body, is missional, intended to glorify God's name and expand God's kingdom throughout the earth. We are a people on-mission, locally, nationally and globally.  We recognize, however, that we live locally and can't personally reach the nation or globe 24/7. So we partner with friends and agencies who have the same vision, mission, values, and beliefs that we do. Here are some of the people and ministries that Heritage has partnered with to advance the kingdom of God.

“Look toward heaven, and count the stars, if you are able to count them.  So shall your offspring be.”

- Gen. 15:5

First Priority Student Minsitry

First Priority is a student ministry that ministers to student Christian clubs on schools grounds by sending church-approved youth workers to coach them on how to reach their campus for Christ. The success of First Priority begins and ends with the local church. The students, youth pastors & faculty sponsors that partner with them all belong to a local congregation. Once a student receives Christ on campus, they are encouraged to connect to the body of Christ where they can grow in their new faith.

Foreign Missions

Africans Reaching Africa

ARA’s vision is to evangelize, disciple, and plant churches among unreached people groups across Northern and Western Africa by mobilizing, equipping, and supporting African believers. North Africa and parts of western Africa are some of the last countries and people groups in the world to receive the Gospel. This is because these places are difficult to get to, difficult to live in, and have increased rates of persecution. Traditionally, missionaries have always been sent from the West to Africa. Now the African church has millions of believers who have been discipled and are more than capable of preaching the Gospel to their African brothers and sisters. ARA assists the African church with mobilization, administration, communication, training, and fundraising help.
