In obedience to Christ’s mandate in Mark 16:15-16 and the vision of FFC, the Missions ministry purposes to win people to Christ through global evangelization by encouraging and coordinating participation in local and international missions ministries. The Missions Council, which is comprised of lay volunteers and leaders, promotes and coordinates opportunities to serve.

Leader: John Porter, Director of Missions & Outreach
