NationaL REACH Opportunities
Anchorage, Alaska
Our partnership in Alaska is one of our oldest church planting relationships. We have been supporting True North Church since 2013. Brian Hicks, the pastor, and his wife Debra, are passionate about developing relationships that point people to Jesus and they are leading their church to do the same.
Trip Details:
During your time in Alaska, your team will canvas the community and simply love on the people. Sometimes this means handing out donuts, smoke detectors, or maybe even spending time at the laundromat sharing with the people while they wash their laundry. Another big community outreach is the Forest Fair. All of these mission projects are designed to serve the community and show them the love of God.
Date: TBD

Portland, Oregon
Sojourn PDX was planted in 2017, and continues to develop. It's been said that Portland is the 13th least-churched city in the nation. With this kid of statistic, discipleship and church growth simply requires one thing: loving people. Teams going to Portland will be working with Sojourn Church and Pastor Matt Boyd and his family to host community outreach events such as Serve the City, partnering with local schools, hosting summer kids day camps, and other local events.
Trip Details:
Join a team that will host a VBS camp in partnership with Sojourn Church in Portland. Sojourn will be using the “Spark Studios” curriculum, which is the same theme that our church is hosting this year for VBS. So, if you’re volunteering at FBCPC’s VBS this summer, you’ll already have a head start on the lessons and songs! Other projects include canvassing the city, prayer walking, and possibly serving at the local homeless center.
Date: July 9th-16th
Estimated Cost: $1,250 ($250 discount if you are serving at FBCPC's VBS)

Pittsburgh, PA
New Horizon Church, led by Will Cole, is one of our more recent church-planting partnerships. New Horizon is engaging the community through neighborhood-centric gatherings where the church will become family, pursue transformation, love their neighbors and celebrate what God is doing. As with many new churches, NHC will initially use short-term teams to expand their reach by sharing the Gospel and supporting the church in whatever it needs.
Trip Details:
Join a small team to minister to one of our newest church plants. If you attended the missions conference this year, you got to hear from Pastor Will Cole and his wife Eryn. This team will focus on prayer walking, canvassing neighborhoods, and inviting families to attend Backyard Bible Clubs that our teams will serve at. These clubs will strategically be hosted in the neighborhoods of those that are members of New Horizon Church. On the final day, all of the clubs will come together for a big celebration and party in the park.
