MISSION: INTERNATIONAL
Since the start of Liberty Church, we have partnered with friends on the ground in both Greece and Nepal and have had the honour of being able to send teams out to support the incredible work they are doing in their nations, whether that be providing aid to those in need or ministering into communities that have not heard the gospel before.
