Outreach

Outreach comprises Mission and Social Transformation. For more information email Melissa. You can also email Jean Knaggs if you are in any way involved in the Mission field and would like us to prayerfully support you

Mission covers both support for people called by God to short and long term mission work, locally, in other parts of our country and beyond our borders, as well as sending out teams on short (7 to 10 days) mission trips.

It is our privilege to support and partner the following missionaries: outreach1-e1278766471881

Social Transformation is the new name for MaP (Ministry amontst the Poor). We use a biblical community development approach, and by forming relationships with poor people we seek to minister to the whole person and community, physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. The aim is to give a “hand up” not a “hand out”. A number of different projects come under the umbrella of the Parish Warehouse which seeks to empower and equip churches to address issues of poverty and injustice.
