Missions Ministry - Purpose

Coordinator of Mission's Ministry: Karen Metz

The Harvest Fellowship Missions Ministry exists to encourage Harvesters to develop a missions-oriented world view by:

• informing the congregation of
- local,
- regional,
- national, and
- international missions activities,

• increasing the church’s
- spiritual,
- emotional,
- financial, and
- material commitment to missionaries,

• encouraging
- informed prayer,
- financial support, and
- personal participation in missions activities, and

• promoting an understanding of missions that includes sharing the Gospel with
- neighbors,
- co-workers,
- friends,
- the local community,
- the nation, and
- the world.

The Harvest Fellowship Mission's Ministry aims to do this by:

increasing awareness of
-church-sponsored full-time missionaries
-member's missions-oriented involvement
getting involved with missions through
- individual "vision trips"
- church-wide missions trip - July 2010 (Harvest Fellowship has completed its first missions trip to Fairmont, West Virginia!)
building a team with a
- missions liaison
- summer missions trip lead

Link to MNA (Mission to North America)...
What is MNA? Mission to North America serves PCA churches and presbyteries as they advance God’s Kingdom in North America through the development of intentional evangelism and outreach ministries.

Link to MTW (Mission to the World)...
What is MTW? The PCA's influence extends far beyond the walls of the local church. Through Mission to the World, about 600 foreign missionaries are working in about 60 nations. Because of the unique relationship between Mission to the World and over 30 mission agencies with which some of PCA's missionaries are working, many people consider PCA's influence to be far greater than its size might indicate. Further, with close to 160 chaplains in the military and in hospitals, the Gospel is proclaimed to a rather large audience around the world not reached through usual ecclesiastical channels. Because of the emphasis on education, many members of the PCA are teachers and professors at all levels of education, including large universities and quite a few theological seminaries.
