Fulfilling the Great Commission
Following Jesus' command to His followers to tell the entire world about Him (Matthew 28:18-20), our church faithfully partners with the broader Christian & Missionary Alliance to support missionary efforts around the globe through financial contributions and foreign mission trips.
In 2007, members from our congregation traveled to Burkina Faso in West Africa to visit with our international workers and provide funds for a radio outreach ministry and primary school projects. The team returned in 2012 to build a playground, outfit classrooms with desks, and teach students at the Alliance-founded Colma Primary School. We share the heart of our fulltime missionaries in their desire to bring both education and the life-saving message of Jesus Christ to these children and continue to support their efforts through prayer and sacrificial giving.
In 2015, Mark & Charlene Sirca were commissioned by FAC and joined their dear friends Joseph & Leyna George in Tamil Nadu, India, to care for lepers and visit orphans in partnership with the Georges' burgeoning ministry, Jireh India Mission, launched two years prior when the Lord called the couple to leave behind their careers in the United States and minister to the poorest children of southern India.
The Sircas worked alongside other volunteers in preparing and packaging meals, and delivering food and wheelchairs to those in need. Mark was also given an opportunity to preach and teach at a Bible training center during their stay. In 2018, Mark & Charlene reunited with the Georges and returned to the field, this time taking along their three teenage children: Jedrek, Isaac, & Chloe.
In 2022, Pastor Nathan McKeen and Jedrek Sirca joined the C&MA's Envision Miami team to preach the Gospel and minister to the poor among the city's immigrant populations, as well as collaborate with Latino, Haitian, and other multi-ethnic churches.
In 2023, a team of six from FAC journeyed to Senegal to minister to impoverished and endangered street children and bring them the good news of Jesus Christ.
