Global Missions

The Missions Committee of Providence Church is dedicated to enabling the church, through individuals and organizations, to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ locally and throughout the world. It is our desire that each member of the congregation has an opportunity to serve and fulfill the “GO” portion of our “Know, Grow, Go” discipleship statement in our local community of Haywood County.

 

 

Providence Church helps to support the following missionaries:

EPC World Outreach:

World Outreach (WO) is the mission sending agency of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. WO’s principal calling is to glorify God by starting disciple-making movements among least-reached people groups, especially among Muslims.

In these hard places, World Outreach generally works in one of three ways:

  • Engage 2025 – The EPC churches of a particular geographic area (a presbytery), in cooperation with WO, prayerfully adopt one or more unengaged Muslim people groups, and send a team of long-term workers to launch disciple-making movements among them.
  • International Theological Education Network (ITEN) – ITEN identifies and deploys gifted EPC teachers to assist national partners and institutions to develop disciples and disciple-makers among unreached people groups, especially Muslims.
  • Cooperative Agreements – WO partners with other compatible sending agencies (which have expertise WO lacks), to send EPC workers to make significant contributions to the goal of starting disciple-making movements among least-reached people groups.

WO currently has about 60 family units living primarily in a belt stretching from North Africa to Southeast Asia, all who have developed teams of financial and prayer supporters (both individuals and churches) before leaving for their fields of service.
