Missions and Community Outreach

Giving back to our community

 The Mission and Community Outreach has the following mandate as provided for in the Book of Order:

• identify, evaluate, recommend, plan, budget for overseas missions, national missions, local community services for review and approval by Session

• develop mission policy , evaluate performance, organise Mission Week programmes, field visits

• develop and deliver social and community relief services

The members of the Committee consist of a Convenor, the pastors and members who are all tasked to champion a particular ministry supported by MC & O.

We have many different projects going on, including:

International Christian Mission (ICM)

church planting and support to local church pastors in Sabah and Sarawak

​

Kairos Research Centre

Deals with all national issues of concern to the Christian community, including the question of Islamization

Kachin Kids

where we support a part of its educational work among children from Myanmar. Church members participate in its activities and volunteer their services in teaching IR and English to the children;

Kuantan Orang Asli, where we partner the Kuantan Presbyterian Church and its Kebaktian Bahasa Malaysia (KBM) ministry in outreach and social programmes to the Orang Asli in remote villages;

El-Shaddai Refugee Centre, which runs a school for refugees. Our ministry  there includes visits and donation of school text books; Destiny Centre, a school for refugee children and children from deprived background in Klang. We support part of the rental for the premises.

​

​

Our focus at present is mainly ministries in Malaysia, with particular attention to the indigenous peoples of Sabah and Sarawak. We are also re-focusing our effort in helping the Orang Asli communities in Peninsular Malaysia and have plans to have outreach ministries besides the ones in Kuantan. To help with the budget MC & O runs a breakfast table where the proceeds go entirely to our outreach and social work among the Orang Asli.

Periodically we raise once-off funds for relief work during times of national disasters, both in Malaysia and overseas.
