EVENTS & HOW TO GET INVOLVED

Today, 59% of the world still has no meaningful access to the gospel. That’s billions of people waiting to hear a message you can help bring them. The Missions Committee at Nashville First is committed to pray, plan, execute, mobilize, educate, inspire, and innovate—all to better equip our congregation for God’s work and for sharing the gospel.

Below are several projects, seminars, and prayer times that you and your family can be a part of. Please consider how you can be a part of sharing God’s love and the hope of the gospel beyond the walls of our church.
