We believe the church is the sending organization for missionaries. We value the relationship between the missionary and their church partners to build connections between the local church and the broader world need for evangelism.
The Mission Ministry Team of Oakville Presbyterian Church actively supports the following global outreach programs.
Frontier Fellowship
Frontier Fellowship traces its beginnings back to a kitchen table in Portland, Oregon, in 1981. It was there missiologist Ralph Winter, pioneer of the unreached people groups movement, shared his vision to revive a frontier mission’s focus within the United Presbyterian Church with Harold Kurtz, a longtime missionary in Southwest Ethiopia. We began under Harold’s leadership as United Presbyterian Frontier Fellowship and were later renamed Presbyterian Frontier Fellowship.
Our vision describes our two-fold conviction: God desires to be worshiped by all peoples through culturally unique expressions of faith, and the global Church is called to unity and participation in sharing the Good News of Jesus with those who still have little or no access to that message.
EPC World Outreach
We support a young family from Portland (whose names we keep off the Internet for their safety) who serve on the EPC World Outreach Engage 2025 team, planting churches among a Muslim unreached people group.
