Pray for the upcoming mission trips. Pray specifically that all the logistics issues will be met, that all the financial support will be raised, that the right people will be convicted to go, and that the hearts of those in the area of service will be softened to hear the Gospel and come to know Jesus Christ in a personal way. 

PROVIDE
Every mission trip has basic needs. These include the financial support to allow people to go; the physical goods that many mission need to carry out their projects. These can include basic toiletries, children's toys, socks, clothes, furniture, eye glasses, shoes, tools, drilling equipment and a wide variety of other supplies. We will work to provide you an ongoing list of needs that you can help with.

PROMOTE
One of the biggest challenges we have in a church the size of Hyde Park, is letting people know about all the opportunities, needs, and prayer requests. You can help us by telling people about the mission work at Hyde Park Baptist Church, attend the many mission oriented events that are sponsored throughout the year, and letting people know about this web site. Whether it's someone in Sunday School, a visitor in the Worship service, or a neighbor across the street, most people what to know what they can do to help others. Let them know how Hyde Park is active in missions and how they can participate.

PLAN
Every one of these mission activities takes a great amount of planning. You may not be able to actually go, but you sure can help plan. Help make travel arrangements, coordinate logistics, organize supplies, find sponsors, or a wide number of other activities that are essential to a successful mission trip.

PARTICIPATE
One of the most rewarding aspects of mission work is actually participating and seeing God at work. You may not feel like you are ready to evangelize, but do you know on many mission trips there are a wide variety of ways to participate, from cooking for volunteers, painting and repairing houses, digging a well, playing games with children and lots more. If you have the spiritiual gift of evangalisim, mission trips are great ways to reach many people. The world is full of the lost. Pray that you will be blessed to participate in an upcoming mission trip!
