Thornleigh Community Baptist Church supports various missionaries and encourages mission activity. We have a number of long-term missionaries, and a number of people in the church have also gone on short-term mission trips of several weeks in length. TCBC has a number of 'Mission Action Groups' which coordinate the various aspects of mission activity within the church.

The church has a number of other missionary families serving in other countries. However, due to the sensitivities of their work, we are unable to publish their details.

Short-Term Missions

TCBC has had a number of people go on short-term mission trips in the last couple of years. Destinations have included Thailand, Cambodia, Mexico, East Timor, Prague, Mongolia and India.  

Mission Action Groups (MAGs)

MAGs are informal action teams who lead a specific area of TCBC’s mission activity. MAGs are not made up of "experts" but learners and experimenters, who have a shared passion for making mission action happen.

The MAGs work in the areas of:

• Communications & education
• Policy & finances
• Missionary care & prayer
• Local mission activity
• Short term, recruitment and training
• Adopted people group
