Mission Ministry is an exciting fellowship of believers tasked to help the church advance her role in global evangelization and social engagement.  Our ministry provides a yearly World Outreach Week (WOW) in October where we seek to engage the church in her world mission vision and provide updated information on our own missionaries.  During this week we call on the congregation to make a faith promise to support the missions of our church and to consider their own involvement in cross-cultural outreach. Our fellowship is enriched by having members who have participated in God-honoring work across cultures.  

World Outreach Week October 2019:                                                      Across the Street and Around the World

Guiding Missional Priorities:

1.            Give attention to Jewish, Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist blocs around the earth and in our local communities. Strategies in the areas of the world with the least kingdom witness, so that there would be no exception to Jesus being exalted among all nations.
2.            Partner with national evangelists, church planters, and Christian workers. These are in India, Nepal, Middle East, as well as Francophone Africa.
3.            Understanding God’s heart for the poor, we choose to partner with those in sustainable community development and in relief for victims of war, famine, displacement, and natural disaster.  We promote ongoing development projects in various locations.
4.  The FULANI. The church’s adopted people group focus since 2001: The largest unreached semi-nomadic people group in the world.
  • Long-term missionary support for those working among them.
  • Short term mission teams in 2008 and 2010 for Children’s ministry, medical outreach, construction, micro-enterprise, and training in Burkina Faso, West Africa.
  • A Fulani leader and his wife have both visited the church and spent weeks with our congregation during several World Outreach Weeks.
  • Supporting a partnership with a Fulani bible training center and pastors conference center.

     •    Providing famine relief grain, water, and development resources for Fulani displaced by violent conflict.

5.  The TAMAJEK. The church adopted this nomadic people group from Niger in 2021.
  • Partnership with an indigenous church planter who works through radio and translations opportunities.

    •    Providing healthcare and development outreach through a mission hospital and community-based initiatives.

6.       Short-Term Missions. We have organized and promoted participation in cross-cultural missions in Haiti, Jordan, India, Burkina Faso, Latin America, and other places.
7.          Developing and sending cross-cultural workers from our congregation and others for long-term service.
