Missions
OUR MISSION PARTNERS
Linguae Christi
Linguae Christi has made the indigenous minority languages of Europe their mission field. Something very special takes place when God’s love and expression is shared in a person’s first language.
Festival Church have had opportunity to partner with Linguae Christi and to support their work in Wales by sending teams to prayer walk areas being reached with the good news of Christ. These missions are very accessible to our congregations as they take place almost on our doorstep, however, we do hope in future to support the wider work of Linguae Christi in Europe with similar prayer walking trips.
Kingsway Educational Initiatives
Kingsway Educational Initiatives (KEI) is a charity that seeks to uplift the local community in South-Western Zambia through education, the good news of Jesus Christ and by running short-term mission opportunities from their camp on the banks of the Zambezi River.
Festival Church and KEI have partnered together since 2017. God has blessed this commitment to work together, and we have seen his kingdom grow. Mission teams have had the opportunity to work with the Kingsway schools, church plants, building projects, visiting villages to pray for people and sometimes visiting local hospitals or clinics. This means the teams we send out often require a mix of skill sets.
You can visit their website or follow them on the following social media platforms:
Moldova
Festival Church partners with AOG Pastors Victor and Emilia Antoci, in Nisporeni, Moldova. They are actively planting churches in villages along the road to Chisinau. They work hard at alleviating poverty through providing food, clothing and help to those in need, along with the hope of the gospel.
Festival Church have the privilege of coming alongside and serving with them by sending short-term missions teams to help in whatever way we can.
Previous trips have included helping to train church leaders, helping on children’s outreach camps, helping with medical care and helping with evangelism.
Up and Coming Festival Mission Trip Opportunities
This year we hope to send two teams back-to-back at the end of June and into July. These trips will last for two weeks and continue working with the schools, local churches and reaching out with the gospel into the villages.
Cost: £2100 – final payment date 24th May 2026
Closing date for applications: 9th November 2025
In 2026, we would like to send more teams in the same way we have sent them this year, to help serve the church and community in whatever way we can. The specifics of each team will be decided after a conversation with Pastor Victor and as we gather interest from individuals from Festival Church.
However, we already know we would particularly like to send a Youth Team to help with summer kids outreach camp that the church puts on in the villages. These trips last for a week.
