Acts 1:8 – “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

Missions and outreach at Lee Street CRC are a commitment to follow Jesus into many places worldwide and in our Lee Street neighborhood with the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Lee Street CRC provides both regular support and special funding to our 12 partner missionaries and organizations.  We believe the Holy Spirit is the key to the growth and future of the Christian church and the demonstration of His life-transforming work. We support our missionaries with prayer, encouragement, and funding. Lee Street CRC also supports missionaries in restricted countries which are unnamed for security reasons.
