Missions
By God’s blessings the Katy congregation has a long history of supporting mission work, both foreign and domestic, and we continue to strive to spread the Gospel. (Matt. 28:19-20, Isa. 52:7)
We fund mission work through our weekly contributions and quarterly Special Missions and Benevolence Contributions. While these works are closely overseen by the Elders, each of the areas of focus have a committee, normally overseen by a deacon, to ensure the day-to-day work is carried out in accordance with God’s will.
Mexico Missions
For many years, the Katy church has made a commitment to evangelism in Mexico through the financial support of local missionaries. As of 2025, we provide full support for eleven missionaries in Mexico.
Non-Mexico Foreign Missions
Katy also currently provides on-going partial support for missionaries in Italy, India and a USA based missionary who works in Cambodia.
Domestic Missions
Katy provides partial support for four men located in Connecticut, Vermont, South Dakota, and Montana.
World English Institute (WEI)
The Katy Congregation is involved in the work of WEI in several ways. We provide partial monthly support for the WEI front office and for their internet activities. For several years, many our members have participated in WEI’s summer short-term (two weeks) mission efforts mainly in Albania and Romania.
Locally, the Katy congregation has a Wednesday night WEI program to reach out to primarily Spanish speaking people in the Katy area and currently hold our own annual campaign patterned after the WEI Albania and Romania programs, setting up and teaching local people for two weeks.
Preaching Schools and Students
It is important to continue to produce men who will go out and preach to others. (Rom. 10:13-15). We provide partial support for several preaching schools including the Bear Valley Bible Institute (Denver, CO), Brown Trail School of Preaching (Bedford, TX), Southwest School of Preaching (Austin, TX) and the Monterrey School of Preaching (Monterrey, Mexico)
In addition to helping the schools, we provide partial support to some of the men and their families while they attend these school full time.
