AROUND
THE WORLD
We take Jesus’s command to make disciples of all nations seriously. Whether it’s serving here at home or on foreign soil, join us as we make the gospel known around the world.
OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
Share the love of Christ with children across the world without leaving Pensacola through Operation Christmas Child (OCC), a project of Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian international relief organization. Join us as we pack shoeboxes that pastors in over 100 countries will distribute to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, and famine.
Over the last two years, we have packed over 9,500 boxes. But it’s not about a child opening a box; it’s about what the box opens for the child: the opportunity to hear the good news of Jesus through a local church, begin a lifelong relationship with Him, and lead others to do the same.
Join us for our church-wide OCC packing party as well as several preparation days throughout the year. The only skills needed are the ability to sit at a table and open packages of pencils or other similar items, and, as a bonus, get to know members of our FBCP family while you work.
International Mission Trips
We are privileged to partner with churches and ministries around the world as we joyfully obey Jesus’s command to make disciples of all nations. The work we do varies from country to country, but as we meet both physical and spiritual needs, we seek to do so with love, humility, and respect for in-country leaders and the host country’s culture.
We have sent teams to Russia, Guatemala, Haiti, and Ukraine, as well as other parts of the world.
