Outreach
“…go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
— Matthew 28:18-20
Global Outreach
We at Grace & Peace Fellowship believe that all Christians are called to help spread God’s word through the support of missionaries. Grace & Peace currently support missionaries in North and South America, Africa and Europe. In the past, we have supported missionaries in Asia as well.
The GOC’s mission is to:
Help missionaries serve the church, through financial support.
Represent missionaries and missionary projects to Grace & Peace.
Represent Grace & Peace to missionaries.
Serve missionaries in other ways, such as through prayer and volunteer work (e.g. sending Church members out into the field).

Turkey Church Plant
Near the biblical site of Pisidia Antioch, is a city of about 500,000 people but no consistent church presence yet. Despite being a very conservative Muslim city, with a hostile history against the church, the number of believers there is steadily growing. We're currently partnering with a local Turkish church to help plant a church in this city. Please pray for this church to grow, be bold in faith, courageous in persecution, and for mature local leaders.
