Missions

The people of FBC Garland live in a community with many needs. Those needs present opportunities to love our neighbors but also tell the story of Jesus. If you are seeking a chance to make a difference, take a look at our ministry opportunities. For questions, please contact the Missions Office at 972-276-7194, x288 (Teresa) or x233 (Jim).

Sponsor a Ukrainian Refugee Child For Christmas

This December, members of the FBCG Refugee team will travel to Czechia and Poland to minister to Ukrainian refugee children.  Because of the economic needs, our team will present Christmas gifts to more than 850 Ukrainian refugee orphans and children.  You can participate in bringing Christmas to these children with your gift.  Your gift of $20 will purchase presents for 1 child.

When choosing where your donation goes, please choose other and designate to Ukrainian Refugee Ministry. Thank you for your generosity.

Please continue to pray for the refugee families, as they have been uprooted and are living in temporary housing.  The weather conditions will be getting very cold this time of the year and we pray they will be able to continue to stay in the refugee centers throughout the winter months.  Thanks again for praying.  Please consider giving for Ukrainian Humanitarian Relief.
