Missions
GO, TELL, SHOW … AROUND THE WORLD
First Free partners with several dozen career missionaries both in the U.S. and globally. Our Global Outreach Team and our missionaries focus on equipping national leaders, aiding them to minister more effectively in their own cultures. Their primary goal is to see people reconciled to God through Jesus Christ.
“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 …” —Matthew 28:19
Our three pillars
Making disciples of all nations
We emphasize three “pillar” ministries to the missionaries we support:
- Evangelism
- Church planting
- Biblical/theological training
Of those pillars, evangelism is paramount, and it is the primary ministry focus for many of our missionaries. See below for more about each pillars.
EVANGELISM
Sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with those who haven’t yet heard, and those who have heard but have not yet responded. This is paramount, and the primary ministry focus for many of our missionaries.
CHURCH PLANTING
Encouraging, supporting and helping to enable healthy churches to reproduce themselves, thus multiplying the church’s effect in spreading the gospel and building the saints.
BIBLICAL/THEOLOGICAL TRAINING
Aiding national pastors and other Christian Leaders to attain formal biblical, theological and leadership training and experience.
