Learn how important missions are to Rochester Covenant, and some of the things our congregation is doing to serve the Lord here and and overseas on our Missions page. This page also has a table of links that will take you to all the other Missions related pages, which are highlighted below. There are missions opportunities for our congregation here in Rochester. We are excited and praise God that the Sudanese Christian community in Rochester is meeting to worship in our church. Their service is at 1:00 pm on Sundays. All are invited to attend. Together with other area churches, we minister to children at Friendship Place.
