World Mission Trips
Each year, members of Farragut Presbyterian Church are given the opportunity to travel to areas outside of Knoxville to reach out to others in need. In 2006 and 2007, we have supported a village in Belize, Central America. In the summer of 2010, FPC youths returned to Belize.
The Ulster Project is dedicated to promoting a peaceful parity of esteem between Roman Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland by building tolerance, trust, and ongoing positive relationships among potential leaders from these Christian traditions. Under the sponsorship of the various US city Ulster Projects, teens (half Catholic and half Protestant; half girls and half boys) from their paired Northern Irish communities come to the United States to live in private homes for a month. During the month, the entire group of Northern Irish and American teens meet almost daily for activities, including encounter sessions, social activities, community service projects, and worship.
Living Waters is the global mission resource of the Synod of Living Waters (Presbyterian Church USA) that trains and equips church mission groups and others to share the gift of clean water with communities in need, and to empower their partners to continue purifying their water on an ongoing basis. Trained volunteers from our church are working with other area churches to partner in providing clean water to a community in Belize and rural Appalachia.
