Missions at West Side

Committed to Rural Communities

Village Missions is committed to helping country churches not only survive,

but thrive. Since 1948, we have been helping country churches thrive all

across North America.

We place pastors in rural churches and help those churches get back on their

feet. We care about the country church and are working to keep the church a

vibrant and vital presence in more than 230 rural communities throughout

North America. We're here when crisis hits, when the community is searching

for somewhere to turn for answers.

West Side Baptist has partnered with Village Missions and has supported the work in Oak Nebraska for

over three years.

People’s City Mission

The People's City Mission (PCM) has been a vital part of the Lincoln community for over

100 years.

We were founded in 1907 by a number of local churches in the city.

We wanted to demonstrate Christ's love to people who were impoverished and homeless by

providing them with emergency assistance of food, shelter, and clothing.

Through the years, our purpose has remained the same: bring the good news of Jesus Christ to

the poor and homeless, and demonstrate His love for them by meeting basic human needs. Over

the years, more than five hundred thousand people have been assisted by our ministry.

Our own Ron Buchinski was the Chief Executive Officer for over 9 ½ years.
