Go Abroad: Our Mission Partners

We are called to take the good news of Jesus to the ends of the earth. At FBCC, we partner with global missionaries and ministries that share the love of Christ across cultures, countries, and continents.

Through prayer, financial support, and missions involvement, we strive to help make disciples of all nations. Whether you go or send, your obedience to the Great Commission matters.

Let’s go — beyond borders, beyond comfort, and into the world for His glory.

Jeff and Stephanie Bys

Jeff and Stephanie Bys serve in Kenya alongside their seven children, dedicating their lives to providing hope and a future for vulnerable children. In 2017, they founded Mercy Children’s Home, which now serves as a full-time home for over 100 orphaned and at-risk children. Their ministry expanded in 2019 with the opening of Mercy Christian Academy, where more than 230 students receive a Christ-centered education. Each day at the academy begins with chapel and ends with a Bible study curriculum, ensuring that spiritual growth is at the heart of their mission. Mercy Ministries operates entirely through donor support, making every contribution vital to the lives they impact.

Haiti Health Ministries - Dr. Jim & Sandy Wilkins

FBCC is honored to support Haiti Health Ministries, a low-cost medical clinic dedicated to caring for both the physical and spiritual needs of the Haitian people. Founded by Dr. Jim and Sandy Wilkins, this ministry provides essential medical care while also sharing the hope of the Gospel. Each day, patients not only receive compassionate treatment but also hear the message of Christ in the waiting room. Through mission teams, prayer support, and financial gifts, FBCC partners in bringing healing and hope to Haiti.

Spencer and Sara Bauer

Spencer and Sara serve with Bridges International, reaching the nearly 50,000 international students studying at USC, UCLA, and other colleges across the Los Angeles metro area. As the second-largest city in the U.S. for international student enrollment, LA is home to many students from unreached people groups, offering a unique opportunity to share the love of Christ with future business, education, and community leaders. Their mission is to see lives transformed by the Gospel so that, when these students return home, they can influence their nations for Christ.
