MISSIONS
Missions
In Matthew 28:19, Jesus commanded His followers to “make disciples of all the nations.” At North Park we understand this command from the Lord and it is something in which we are actively involved. Our church also follows Christ’s directive from Acts 1:8 - to continually be on mission locally, regionally, and around the world.
LOCALLY
North Park continues to be a presence for missions in our own community. North Park leads several events, such as soccer camps and bible clubs during the year. The Lord has allowed our church to reach many children and families with the truth of the Gospel with these types of projects.
​
Our Current local project is with Share Ministries of Sherman, Tx. North Park leads the worship services held at Share Ministries on Sunday Mornings, as well as helping to distribute food and necessary items to those in need. There are always volunteers needed for this ministry!
REGIONALLY
The Lord has allowed our church to share His love and His Gospel in the United States. Efforts such as disaster relief has been one such way. North Park is involved with Southern Baptist Disaster Relief. In the last couple of years we have sent individuals and teams in Texoma, southern Texas, and Louisiana to give aid to those who were in desperate need. In order to be a volunteer with Southern Baptist Disaster Relief, proper training is required. David and Marcia Hayes, here at North Park, are directing those who would like more information and training in disaster relief efforts.

AROUND THE WORLD

The Lord also continues to open doors for international mission trips. Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Sierra Leone include some of the countries to which North Park members have traveled.
We’re also thankful to support many missionaries who are a connected to North Park Baptist:
* Rob Casey is the president and founder of “Go Send Me Global”. This is a missions organization that recruits, trains, and sends out missionaries across the world. Rob also gives on-going training and support to missionaries who are already on the field. GSM leads several short-term international mission trips throughout the year.
