ALLELUIA!MISSIONS

Commit: “Jesus sends us out to serve others and share the Gospel.”


We are a church that responds to Jesus’ call to carry out his mission in the world. The purpose of the Alleluia! mission program is: "To enable all to commit to Jesus through the engagement of time, talent and treasure in Alleluia!’s mission efforts." Our vision is of an Alleluia! community that is actively engaged and making a visible impact by lifting people out of all forms of poverty (economic, emotional, intellectual, physical, social, and spiritual) through personal and congregational involvement.

COMPASSION INTERNATIONAL

Compassion’s mission is to “release children from poverty in Jesus’ name.” Through Compassion, you can sponsor a child who can benefit from Compassion’s programs, which enable the physical, social, economic, and spiritual development needed to become responsible, fulfilled Christian adults. As a sponsor you will have the opportunity to support your child through prayers, letters, birthday cards, and Christmas gifts. Alleluia! has partnered with Compassion to sponsor children in Peru.

HOPE INTERNATIONAL

The mission of HOPE INTERNATIONAL is to invest in
the dreams of families in the world’s underserved communities as we proclaim and live out the Gospel.  One of the primary ways they do this is through a model of Savings Groups operating out of local congregations in impoverished areas.  Alleluia! supports the HOPE Savings Group program in Comas, Peru.

OPERATION

CHRISTMAS CHILD

Each November we participate in the Operation Christmas Child program by filling shoeboxes with various items (school supplies, toys, hygiene items) and sending them to children living in poverty around the world.  Children receive these needed items as well as the Good News of God’s Son being born into the world for our sake. 

RUN WITH A MISSION

Run/walk, have FUN, and help raise funds for good causes at the annual Run with a Mission hosted by Alleluia!  Run proceeds benefit our mission partners.  Together we are bringing God's love to our local and global community!

LOAVES&FISHES

Loaves & Fishes provides food and hope to residents of Naperville and DuPage County whose financial circumstances make it difficult to provide food for themselves and their families. They distribute over 60,000 pounds of groceries each week, and depend on a network of over 1000 volunteers to collect, sort, stock shelves, and assist clients. Loaves & Fishes also partners with local organizations to offer a holistic approach to meet the needs of those they serve, offering services in areas such as nutrition, mental health, employment assistance and skills, financial and computer literacy, and language skills.
