Short-Term Missions

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” (Luke 4:17-19) Our vision is to support the work of local community ministries in developing countries through the placement of short-term volunteers. Volunteering is a great way to share your faith and grow significantly at a personal level.

Upcoming Missions

Mission Strategy trip to the Philippines: January 2010

The Street City Church has a relationship with a mission work in Manila through International Needs. We have in recent years funded the construction of a mini library, social work and church in the Olandes community, sponsored children in Philippines and assisted a church planting work in the area north of Manila through Pastor Boy Arzacon.

The time has come to work with International Needs Philippines to seek the Lord for the next 5 – 10 years of mission work. They have asked for our help develop a plan to further deepen the impact of the gospel in the Philippines.

Therefore we are putting together a team to travel to Manila for approximately 1 week in the second half of January 2011, to sit with the Filipino leaders to develop a strategic plan for ongoing mission. We are looking for people who want to invest in a short-term strategic mission trip who have expertise in the following areas.

  • Pre-school education: the new pre-school is a major thrust into the community and they need help in the implementation of the values of the programme in the community
  • Health and Dental care: developing a health/dental health strategy for the area
  • Business development: looking at job creation/small business/ micro-credit for business startup
  • Strategic planning: Working with church leaders, helping them form goals and assessing what resources are needed to achieve them.

If you wish to register interest for this trip and receive more information, please make contact with Oban by emailing office@thestreet.org.nz
