Missions

Missions are a very important part of Hope Fellowship Church. Hope Fellowship strives to allocate at least 10% of its annual budget towards some form of missions. Members of the church have been involved in missions trips to several countries, including Cameroon, Honduras, Mexico, and Romania. Recently the church also coordinated the shipping of a container of computer equipment to Cameroon to be used in the Cameroonian church's secondary schools and offices.

Most of the church's mission activities are coordinated through the International Missions Office of the North American Baptist Conference (NAB).

Brief summaries of the missionaries and missionary activities supported by the church are below.


Doctors Dennis & Nancy Palmer

Dr. Nancy Palmer will spend time teaching at the local Baptist seminary in Cameroon as well as encouraging the missionary wives.

The McCaskills have been accepted as missionary candidates with Mission to Unreached People, and they hope to leave for Albania in the spring or early summer of 2005. Austin and Beverly will be working at the Center for Christian Leadership in Tirana, Albania. Austin will serve as a teacher of Bible and practical pastoral subjects, while Beverly will serve as a mentor for female students.


International Students, Inc. (ISI)

The church donates some money to the local ISI office. ISI exists to help provide services to international students studying in the United States. Some of those services "include teaching them about American culture, helping them with problems needing a native speaker, finding an American Christian mentor in their academic discipline, and (if interested) teaching them about our Creator God and the Bible." The team leader for ISI in Kansas City is Carol Douglas, who has been to church a few times to talk about ISI's ministry.
