United States Missions we support
- GOSPEL BROADCASTING NETWORK (GBN) This is a 24/7 satellite television endeavor that is already broadcast in many states and has the future potential of going to other countries. It is sponsored by the Highland church in Dalton, GA.
- Gospel Broadcast Network (GBN) 8900 Germantown Road Olive Branch, Mississippi 38654
- GEORGIA – Philip Gray is supported monthly as he works with the church in Buchanan. Georgia is still a mission field with small congregations that are not self-supported, as well as counties without a NT church. Buchanan, though small, is a growing and strong church.
- JONESBORO, GA – Our own neighborhood must not be neglected. To keep the church and the gospel before the people, the HOUSE-TO-HOUSE publication is mailed to over 1000 homes six times a year. We believe this to be money well spent, though response is minimal.
- TENNESSEE BIBLE COLLEGE – We believe the training of preachers is most important for the future well-being of the Lord’s church, and TBC is a good place to get it. That is why it continues in our budget. This is an effort to train preachers, teachers, and elders who will strengthen the church, defend the truth, and take the gospel to the lost of the world.

- Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort – immediately responds to any major disaster in the continental United States by sending truckloads of emergency food, water, cleaning supplies, and other supplies to disaster victims. The organization has distributed more than $200 million in emergency food and supplies in response to over 400 disasters in 47 states. Churches of Christ Disaster Relief only works through the local Church of Christ in or near the community or town where the disaster has occurred. If there is no Church of Christ in the town, Disaster Relief will contact the nearest town that has a Church of Christ and ask for help. The supplies and other household goods will be distributed by that congregation in the name of the Lord to anyone who has been affected by the disaster, regardless of race, color, creed, or religion.

- Local Outreach – The Tara congregation mails the bi-monthly publication, HOUSE TO HOUSE, to homes in our neighborhood, to approximately 1600 homes. This keeps the church name and teaching before the people of our community. The Tara congregation prepares bags quarterly for the homeless. Michael Hollis oversees this outreach program. The Ladies of the Tara congregation have a separate homeless outreach. Gallon bags are prepared to be kept in vehicles to give to the homeless on street corners, etc. Bible tracts are in the bags for them to read and encourage them.
- Special Requests – We help various missionaries with one-time contributions for their travel and work funds. College students and others request help with short-term mission trips. Missionaries we regularly support need additional funds. (As funds are available.)
