Mission Trips
As we step into the promise of 2026, we are excited to unveil our new lineup of mission trips. These experiences are far more than just travels; they are opportunities to extend compassion, spread the message of Christ, and create lasting change in the lives of those we serve—and within ourselves. Each trip is uniquely crafted to bring hope, support, and the light of salvation to communities near and far.
Whether you’re a middle schooler, high school student, college student, or adult ready to serve, there’s a mission trip designed with you in mind. We also offer special opportunities for families to serve together, fostering shared experiences of faith and service. Take the leap, make an impact, and join us in spreading Christ’s love across the world.
Serve My City College Mission
Our in-town college mission trip is an incredible opportunity for The Bridge College ministry to serve right here in the community we call home. Instead of traveling across the country or overseas, we’ll spend several days engaging with local organizations, meeting real needs, and building relationships with people in our own city. From serving at food pantries and Faith Mission, to helping with neighborhood projects and outreach events, students will see firsthand how God can use them to make a difference where they live. It’s not just about giving back—it’s about discovering that mission starts in our own backyard, and that every act of service can point others to the hope of Jesus.

Disaster Relief
Parts of our country are still trying to recover from damage done by hurricanes in 2024 and 2025. We continue to coordinate rebuilding efforts with Texans On Mission to help those who have lost so much. In the summer of 2025 terrible flooding took hundreds of lives in Central Texas. The flooding not only swept summer camps away but also damaged many homes in the area. We have already sent thousands of dollars to help people who were left devastated by these floods. We are also working to pair volunteers from our church with the Texans On Mission work to help with ongoing relief efforts in Central Texas. Plus, we are continuing to monitor on-going relief efforts in North Carolina. If you have time to give and a willingness to help others, this may be an area of Missions where you can plug in to help others in great need.
For more information and to learn about available opportunities please email ravenius@fbcwf.org.
Local Opportunities
All year long, our church is involved in local ministry opportunities with organizations that reach and help people in need. From serving meals at Faith Mission or Faith Refuge for Women to helping with the weekly Good News Bible Club at a local grade school, there are many ways to lift up Jesus in our community! Our annual Serve Saturday takes us outside our church walls. On this day, we help Legacy Members, widows, and others in our community with home repairs, yard work, and projects beyond their capabilities. Each fall, we serve local food organizations with our Cans By The Car Food Drive. In November, we pack “shoeboxes” with toys, clothes, and more for children worldwide through Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child. In December, we bless local children through Prison Fellowship’s Angel Tree Ministry.
