MISSION

We believe that the ‘Great Commission’ of Jesus Christ: to go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation is the fundamental activity of the church. This involves both the communication of the Christian message and the prayerful, compassionate provision of material and financial support to worthy causes.  We deem mission is to children and adults alike and applies locally, nationally and world-wide.

Below is a synopsis of the current missions that the church supports, together with planned outreach activities that will take place during the year.

SKYE BIBLE CHURCH


God changing us to change our world

November Mission News Letter


Skye Bible Church has spent the last few weeks looking at missionary giving and preparing our hearts to be open to God’s message to us as a church and individual.

“This most generous God who gives seed to the farmer that becomes bread for your meals is more than extravagant with you. He gives you something you can then give away, which grows into full-formed lives, robust in God, wealthy in every way, so that you can be generous in every way, producing with us great praise to God. Carrying out this social relief work involves far more than helping meet the bare needs of poor Christians. It also produces abundant and bountiful thanksgivings to God.” 2 Corinthians 9 v. 10 -12 (TM)

Yours in Christ Jesus

SANDRA AND ALAN SKENE



Sandra & Alan Sandra and Alan Skene who come from Kirkcaldy who have been living in Malawi for several years now helping with a feeding programme for the new borns to 8 year old children as well as providing support for the families. Sandra has run this and many Sunday schools which the children love.  Alan has been spreading the good news and helping many young men come into ministry.  We were introduced to them by our close friend and Apostle of the church, Samuel McKibbon.

OPEN DOORS



Open Doors logo There are always Christians being persecuted because of their faith and others who do not own a bible or any spiritual material or who are unable to read these for fear of being caught. Here we have 'Open Doors' which aims to raise awareness and bring different types of support into these situations.  Peter Prall keeps us informed about these global issues and has monthly meetings at his house to pray for specific and topical areas of need.

IN MINISTRY TO CHILDREN



IMC logo We have learnt about Colombia which has been known as one of the most violent countries in the world. Despite it being rich there are large proportions of the population that live in poverty.  Martin Plowman has a close contact with ' In Ministry to Children' . This organisation runs two homes for children giving them a home and education immersed in the love of God.

HOUSE OF VICTORY ISRAEL

Our Origins


Skye Bible Church was established by Alistair and Barbara Matheson in February 1994.

Their launch of this new work was the result of years of prayerful consideration. With a vision for Skye Bible Church that it will one day be reflective of the New Testament church; fervent in prayer, united in purpose, dedicated to the Word of God, evangelistically zealous, led of the Holy Spirit and supernaturally empowered.

We believe that Jesus is alive and relevant to our lives today and you are very welcome to join us to find out for yourself whether this is pie in the sky or reality.
