Missions

Missions at North Scituate Advent Christian Church

We believe we are called to share the gospel locally, nationally and around the world. In order to fulfill that calling, we partner with the following missions groups. We also prayerfully consider other requests throughout the year such as supporting existing food pantries and local community-based needs.

Advent Christian Outreach
We work in cooperation with other Advent Christian Churches worldwide to provide support for national and international missions efforts. For information on Advent Christian Outreach efforts go to: http://acoutreach.com.

Habitat For Humanity
In September 2009, North Scituate Advent Christian Church (NSACC) began working with Habitat for Humanity, West Bay and Northern RI chapter, to help in building affordable housing for a family in Lincoln, RI. Work crews from NSACC, along with other organizations give of their time and talent while Habitat for Humanity supplies the building materials and overall direction of the building project which is projected to take 6 months to complete. We are grateful for the opportunity to demonstrate God’s love in tangible ways.

Renewed Life Philippine Mission
This mission exists to bring desperately needed medical supplies to the poor and homeless of Mindanao Island in the Philippines. They accomplish this by partnering with multiple hospitals and organizations in the USA, taking their old, but still usable equipment and shipping it to the Philippines, for use in hospitals and clinics there. This work is carried out under the leadership of Bill & Ghing Farace. Visit their website at: http://www.renewedlifephp.org.
