Our Missionary Partners

Our Missionary Partners

St Andrew’s church has strong ties with missionary societies globally, through friendship, financial support, and prayer. The church has chosen a few of these societies as Mission Partners, which we support regularly as a church. This includes praying for them, sharing their updates and providing both financial and practical support. Our current Mission Partners are engaged in various activities such as Bible-based witness, evangelism, teaching, translation and practical relief work, both at home and abroad, are listed below.
