Missions

Living Out Our Vision

At Faith Oakville, our goal is to live out our mission and vision in our everyday lives – making disciples where we live, work, and play. Jesus says, “Therefore go and make disciples…” Matthew 28:19, and this concept is at the forefront of everything we do at Faith. We believe there are mission fields everywhere - from our own neighborhoods to places much farther away. For those who like to venture farther away to serve the Lord, we offer a few mission trips every year.
