Missions

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.

Matthew 28:18

At Fellowship we partner with many groups and organizations to share the love of Christ. The Bible tells us that we are to be His witnesses “…in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” (Acts 1:8). We believe that this command gives us a picture of what the mission of the local church should look like. We are called to reach others with the life changing message of the gospel locally, regionally, and globally.
Listed below are some of our missional partnerships!

An exciting missions endeavor for 2024 is our focus on missions in the St. Louis area. 75 years ago a church in the city stepped out in faith and planted a little church out in Jefferson county. That little church became Fellowship. Now, 75 years later, we are pouring back into the city of the abundance blessings God has given us! For 2024 we will be serving in many areas to help St. Louis Church plants, volunteering at the St. Louis Send Center, and more missional opportunities!  Praise God for his blessings so we can be a blessing!

Mexico

Joe and Amy Hendrigsman are on the mission field to serve as missionaries to the unreached indigenous tribes in Oaxaca, Mexico.  As a nurse, Amy has been able to provide clinic services to the people of Oaxaca as an avenue to Gospel conversations. Together, they work with others to get the Word to the people in their own language! Through the sending of their home church they have been serving faithfully at Iglesia Bautista de Gracia in Santa Maria Huatulco but felt the call to plant more churches where the Gospel had not reached.

Just outside of Santa Maria Huatulco is the colony of 20 de Noviembre.  This town of 4,500 people did not have a gospel preaching church.  In 2019, Fellowship purchased land and in 2020 construction started on Iglesia Bautista del Compañerismo.  In 2022 the church opened its doors to the community!  Pastor Gustavo has been faithfully leading this church under the mentorship of Joe and Amy!

Samaritan's Purse

Each year we, along with hundreds of other churches pack together boxes filled with toys and essentials for the Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child project. The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. All the boxes the churches packed and then hand delivered to all over the world where children hear the Gospel!
