Global Focus
For the latest news on some of our people in the mission field, visit our Missions page.
Jesus said to go and make disciples of all nations. It is our vision to assist the Church in fulfilling its mission to see people’s lives transformed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Global Focus team is responsible for stimulating awareness, interest and engagement in local and overseas mission for all who attend Hutt City Baptist.
It is also responsible for the distribution of the church’s mission tithe by giving to and supporting people involved in overseas missions and mission organisations.
