Called to Go: Our Mission Partners
At FBCC, missions is at the heart of who we are. We are grateful for the opportunities God has given us to serve—both in our local community and across the world. Whether we are going or sending, our goal remains the same: to share the love of Christ and make disciples of all nations. Here are some of the ways we are answering the call to go.
