MISSIONS
THE GOAL OF WOODLAWN MISSIONS IS TO IDENTIFY THOSE IN NEED OF THE GOSPEL, INVITE THEM TO JESUS, INVEST IN THEM THROUGH DISCIPLESHIP AND INCREASE THE KINGDOM OF GOD BY SENDING OUT DISCIPLE MAKERS FROM WOODLAWN AND PARTNERING WITH OTHER MISSIONARIES LOCALLY, NATIONALLY AND ABROAD.
Missionaries
Brian Pate & Family

Local missionaries
Wade and courtney lawing
We are partnering with local missionary Wade Lawing and his wife Courtney. They serve with The Fellowship of Christian Athletes on the western side of Gaston County focusing on Bessemer City, Cherryville, Highland and North Gaston High Schools. FCA's vision is to see the world transformed by Jesus Christ through the influence of coaches and athletes. Their mission is to lead every coach and athlete into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His church. Wade and FCA's core value is that relationships will demonstrate steadfast commitment to Jesus Christ and His Word through Integrity, Serving, Teamwork and Excellence.
German Trainee's
Trainee program that will equip young pastors to start new church plants around the Munich area.
Giving & Sending
Not everyone is able to go as a missionary, but there are excellent opportunities to send a missionary. We have three church wide campaigns each year. The Lottie Moon mission campaign occurs around Christmas and is for international missions. The Annie Armstong campaign occurs around Easter and is for home missions. The Operation Christmas Child is special as it occurs at VBS.
