Missionaries
We’d love for you to come alongside Watermark’s missionaries through prayer and financial support. Take time to prayerfully consider a missionary and then email Watermark’s International Missions Team with their name and how you’d like to support, whether through prayer, financial giving, or receiving updates.

Missionary Prospects
Missionary prospects are assessed and appointed by Watermark’s International Missions Team and prepared through a sending plan that equips and commissions them for church planting or pastor training. Prospects are identified by disciple-making character, competency, and chemistry, and then developed through a nine-month training alongside other prospects. Once prospects identify a sending agency, they seek financial and prayer partners for long-term support.
Middle East
The F Family
The F family will be serving in the Middle East to share the good news of the gospel with unreached college students. Their focus will be on reaching students with the gospel, building them up in their faith, and equipping them to reach those around them. The F family’s heart is to see lifelong Christ-centered laborers raised up, so that one day, every person would know someone who truly follows Jesus.

The L Family
The L family will be based in the Middle East, serving churches throughout North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Here, they will meet needs amidst crisis so that new churches can grow.
