Missions
Welcome to Missions
At Sandbridge Community Chapel, missions are at the heart of who we are. We believe the Church is called not only to gather, but to go — to serve our neighbors, support global partners, and share the love of Christ in practical and life-giving ways. From local outreach to international ministry partnerships, we are committed to equipping, encouraging, and sending those who carry the Gospel into their communities and beyond.
Through prayer, generosity, and hands-on involvement, our church family joins God in His work both near and far. We invite you to explore the ministries we support and discover how you can be part of the mission.
The Antioch Commission exists to go, care, and train emerging Christian leaders at every stage of their journey — from preparation to active ministry. They focus on training leaders, supporting and helping them grow in their calling, and providing tools and resources to multiply the work of the Gospel both locally and globally.
The Coyle Family
The Coyle family is deeply committed to seeing people equipped, activated, and sent into the call and purpose God has placed on their lives. For more than 25 years, their vision has remained steady: to partner with leaders around the world, helping them grow in strength, clarity, and confidence as they serve.
Their ministry has taken many forms — from youth ministry in Beijing, to pastoring an international church, to providing pastoral care and leadership support through online gatherings. Today, their reach continues to expand as they respond to invitations to bring encouragement, training, and spiritual care to leaders and families across multiple nations.
Current mission Update
From February 10 through mid-April, Danny, Jill, and Maia Coyle will be serving in Asia and the Middle East. In February, they will offer pastoral care at a conference gathering missionaries from 12 countries. In March, they will provide care and leadership development at the annual Free Burma Rangers gathering, serving more than 300 leaders and families from Burma, Iraq, Tajikistan, and Syria. On their return, they plan to visit missionary families in Saudi Arabia and Cyprus, strengthening relationships and offering in-person encouragement.
Danny and Jill provide ongoing monthly pastoral care to these families throughout the year, making these in-person retreats a meaningful and much-anticipated time of renewal and connection.
