The church is called to "Go into the world and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19). We are fully committed to support mission work overseas. Below are ways to get involved in world missions at The Oaks:
Short Term Missions |
Our church strongly encourages our people to get involved in missions with first-hand experience by going on short-term missions trips, either as individuals or with one of our church teams. Stay tuned for our next planned STM . |
Global Workers |
We support the following people with finances, prayer, encouragement, and care. Clicking their name on the list will take you to their website where you can support them with a donation.
|
Child Sponsorship |
We partner with Compassion Canada to "release children from poverty in Jesus' name". Our children's ministry (Magnificent Kidz) sponsors a child, as do many of our members. We encourage everyone in our church to sponsor a child (or children) in a needy part of the world, and provide them with food, clothing, and education. This makes a tremendous difference in the lives of children in poverty! |
Emergency Relief & Development Overseas (ERDO) |
ERDO is a ministry of the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada involved in relief as needed to areas of the world facing disasters and crises, as well as partnering with organizations in the work of community development. We partner with ERDO on occasion, as need arises. |
Special Projects |
Occasionally, as need arises, we raise funds for special projects. Over the past few years, we have raised thousands of dollars for a water well project in Bangladesh (2014), water purification systems in Cambodia (2015), orphanage and school building project in Kenya (2016), and famine relief for people in a drought-stricken region of the so-called "Horn of Africa" (2017). |
