Global Missions

leaders in MONGOLIA

Waypoint Church is excited to see one of our own families on the mission field. This family began a call to the people of Mongolia for a season of leading and teaching in an international university setting in the fall of 2021.

Pray for excellence and effectiveness in the tasks they have been given. Pray for a chance to be on a team to strengthen the global footprint of the families of Waypoint Church through this unique opportunity.

Vecinos Ministries, Panama

Engage with Waypoint Missionaries, Barry & Yvette Henry, through Vecinos Ministries. Utilizing a Community Development approach to ministry that launched in the fall of 2021, the Henry’s aim to build a wholistic vehicle of ministry to provide basic needs, education, and restoration to help families break the poverty cycle and change the future for generations to come in Northern Panama.

We completed our first Waypoint trip to Panama in September 2023! Look for future opportunities ahead to join us in Panama to show and share the gospel with our friends.

MISSION ANTIGUA

It is a joy to collaborate with missionaries Courtney & Arleen Street, who lead Caribbean Connect. Their ministry has opened many doors in schools and churches on the island of Antigua for years. They now lead mission efforts in the region while pastoring outside of Baltimore, Maryland.

The Streets have used the Wise Choices Campaign, which continues today, to lead youth out of bondage through an investment in local island schools to teach choices of character from scripture can build a better life trajectory.

From pre-merger years at Waypoint, an investment was made into training teachers and administration. Specifically, this was achieved through an invitation by the National Ministry of Education in Antigua to assist the arena of Special Needs Inclusion.

The Special Needs Unit of Antigua invited our team, under the arms of the Street’s leadership, to help strengthen their goals for an inclusive classroom in their approach. In early 2020, we completed our 3-year commitment to a National Pilot Program they developed to train teachers in best practices in this challenging task. Should a future trip develop, we will need educators to lead the way from Waypoint again.

Since the Spring of 2018, we were also able to take steps to expand the gospel locally within focused communities, by collaborating with and strengthening local churches.

Courtney & Arleen have a proven faithful ministry with over 27 years serving with the International Mission Board, nearly a decade in self-supporting mission work, and now collaborating as pastors in the states to lead churches on mission all around them!

Heshima Ministries

Heshima Ministries, led by Misty Newsome at Waypoint Church, invites women in and teaches them marketable skills so that they and their families can survive in places of difficulty in Uganda. In the process the women are served, restored, empowered and strengthened.

You can connect to help women in another part of the world through this sustainable work. Find out more below.

Ireland Missions / Church Strengthening

Pray for the Emadi’s leading efforts in Ireland since November 2014 on the Cooley Peninsula in county Louth. Roughly 20,000 people live on the peninsula without a single evangelical church. They are working as church-planters, alongside of an established church in the town of Dundalk, where they live. Having been on the ground for years, God continues to open doors into the culture through their patient approach to relationships for the gospel.
