| Current Projects:
Congo Partnership- The relationship with our sister churches in the Congo, Lemba and
Limete, continues. It is through this relationship that Bayside Presbyterian connects with
the work of the Presbytery of Eastern Virginia via the International Partnership Committee.
We continue to give support to various building projects, including a maternity clinic, and
church development.
Fuente de Aqua Viva- In June 2008 we will again send a contingent of youth and adults
from Bayside on a mission trip to Ticul, Mexico (Fuente de Aqua Viva) to assist in building
construction. Our folks also plan and conduct a “Vacation Bible School” supporting church
development. This mission strengthens our ongoing relationship with the Presbyterian Church
in Mexico.
The Witness Ministry actively supports “Stamps for Missions,” a project that supports printing
of Bibles and Christian Education in the Congo and Jamaica; and recycling of prescription
eyeglasses for foreign missions. We also encourage worldwide mission assistance through special
over and above offerings throughout the year, including One Great Hour of Sharing, World
Communion Peacemaking Offering, and the Joy Fund and participating in the Nickel-a-Meal Program.
Interested in getting involved? Why not join us in our efforts to convey Christ's love from
Bayside Presbyterian to the world? We would love to have you join us!
