our call to missions

Missions

King Jesus sends his followers into the whole world to disciple the nations. What could be better than sharing the greatest story ever told? We equip ourselves as a missions-sending fellowship through:

  • Learning about missions
  • Knowing our missionaries
  • Praying for their work
  • Supporting them
  • Visiting and helping them

Activities

  • MEET: Throughout the year visiting missionaries share with us on Sunday morning or in small groups or special events.
  • LEARN: SSBC's Disciple Training Institute offers a basic introduction to world missions. Contact Seth.
  • PRAY: On the fourth Sunday of the month, we gather to pray for our missionaries specific prayer requests.
  • TRAVEL: Every year, mission trips are organized to give people first-hand experience on the mission field.
  • ADOPT: We encourage every household to adopt a missionary to correspond with and to uphold in prayer. Lisa Towle, our Missionary Contact Coordinator, would be glad to suggest a missionary for you to adopt.
  • UNITE: Every October special guest speakers expand our global vision during our Missions Week. This is the time we each prayerfully pledge financial support to our missionaries for the coming year. Our missions budget is separate fromthe operations budget and is based upon the “faith promise” pledges received from the congregation during the October Missions Week coming October 23-30, 2011.

This week's Missionary

Steve & Rita Read - AIM, Philippines

Steve ministers in collaboration with PCEC (Philippine Council of Evangelical Churches), TOPIC Philippines, and MentorLink Phillippines training and mentoring pastors thus developing mature leadership in churches that can then reach out missionally to the world around them. In 10 years an estimated 10,000 pastors will have gone through this intense training and a mighty army of Filipino churches will be reaching out to those in the 10/40 window.
Rita works at a nearby Filipino school for orphans and squatter children. She helps to develop the school’s curriculum to adapt to the needs of these at risk children.

Pray for:

  • That God will move in the hearts and minds the pastors and churches Steve interacts with.
  • For the school and the children that Rita ministers to.
  • For their upcoming home furlough—many stressful details to be worked out.
  • For our MISSIONARY FAMILY—spiritual, physical, emotional, financial needs are plentiful.
