Across the World
Our mission to make disciples means reaching out not only across the street but across the world. Through the North American Baptist Conference, we as a church are involved in sending and supporting a number of overseas missionaries in countries such as Brazil, Cameroon, Romania, Hungary, and Japan. Each year we hold a Spring Missions Weekend where we host one or more of our NAB missionaries to hear from them what they are doing in the country to which God has called them. Check the church calendar to see when our next Spring Missions Weekend will happen.
Ndola Church Planting Project
In 2001, Rowandale adopted a least-reached people group in Nigeria called the Ndola tribe. We sent a six-person team from our church to contact leaders of that tribe in 2003 and explore possibilities of spreading the gospel and planting churches there. Since that time, Pastor Mark has traveled to the Ndola area six times and has taken others with him on three occasions. Today, there are approximately 30 churches among the 200 Ndola villages. Rowandale has been supporting Ndola evangelists and funding community development projects to help the people there. Check out our Ndola missions page for more information.
