Missions Committee
David W. Gobel
The Missions Committee selects local and foreign missionaries and organizations for financial and prayer
support; planting new churches or supporting church-planting initiatives; organizing short-term mission
opportunities for members of the congregation; overseeing the I.P.C. Day Camp, and hosting an annual
Missions Conference. We continued to support one of our own members, Jessica Wiggins, who is serving
as a nurse with Peru Mission in Trujillo, Peru. The committee also oversees the activities of the
subcommittee on Moral Concerns. Below is a list of persons, organizations, events and projects supported
by the Missions Committee in 2017.
