International Outreach
Passion for lost people and restored friendship with God through Jesus Christ is the driving force of mission. Forest Park Covenant Church supports a variety of ministries and missionaries around the globe. We share this passion to bring lost and hurting people to God.
Covenant World Relief
Established in 1946, Covenant World Relief has served as the international humanitarian aid and development arm of the Evangelical Covenant Church. In times of extreme need it also engages in domestic disaster response. Our charge is to assist the "poorest of the poor" by offering Relief, Rehabilitation, and Development.
Operation Christmas Child
A unique project of Samaritan's Purse International, Operation Christmas Child enables caring people to share God's love with hurting girls and boys in the far corners of the globe. Take an ordinary shoe box, fill it with toys and other presents, and you have an extraordinary gift for a child in need of joy and hope. Forest Park is a national relay Center for the greater Muskegon area. Filled shoeboxes are collected annually in November and relayed to Grand Rapids.

All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
- Matthew 28:16-20
