Missions

Matthew 28:18-20 – Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore 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.

As Christ has delivered the Great Commission to us, Trinity holds that every Christian church must make disciples by preaching the Gospel, initiating people into the church through baptism, and teaching those who have joined the church all that Christ has commanded us. Our support for missions is thusly focused on the following areas:

Church planting efforts (both local and foreign)
Seminaries (both local and foreign) which focus on training and sending out pastors
Churches that are not yet financially self-sustaining
Evangelism that intentionally moves new believers toward an existing church or toward the creation of a church.

This pattern of establishing and/or sustaining churches rather than simply seeking individual conversions is what we see Paul model for us throughout his ministry in Acts and his epistles. This functions as our blueprint for Missions support at TPC. Specifically, our missions support, financial or otherwise, will primarily be in favor of establishing and/or sustaining churches of reformed theological doctrine. We also favor deeper commitments to a few missionaries than trying to spread our resources amongst many. The families below are currently supported by TPC.
