Missions

Why We Value Missions

Our mission's philosophy and burden combine the Great Commandment (Matthew 22:37-39) and the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19). We believe that God calls the local church to be a global church. We partner with missionaries and families all over the world who are passionate about connecting the nations to Jesus for life change.

Southbridge-supported missionaries + organizations

Southbridge supports missionaries and organizations serving across the world. We are committed to supporting these missionaries financially and with continual prayer.

Southbridge is all about connecting people to Jesus for life change. We emphasize our efforts in Raleigh because we believe God has put us here to reach our city. However, God also calls people to leave Raleigh to connect people to Jesus for life change around the world all the time.

Mission trips at Southbridge are opportunities for us as a church to come alongside ministries and people sent out from our body (missionaries) to connect people to Jesus around the world.

God works beyond Southbridge’s “official” mission trips. If God calls you to participate in a trip through another ministry or organization, let us know, so we can discuss how we can support you.

Southbridge is committed to helping anyone interested in going on a trip, regardless of their financial situation. Southbridge provides resources on how to raise financial support for a trip, along with other assistance as needed.
