One of the intentions of the small group of Christians that established Singleton Baptist Church in 1963 was to be mission-oriented. We have continued this focus and count missionary support as one of our strengths. Our support includes financial, prayer, correspondence, practical gifts and short-term mission trips.
The church has a mature policy framework for assessing and continuing mission commitments, with a particular focus on long-term commitments to people we send.
We currently support:


Ross and Donna Nancarrow
International Mission Ministries
Originally from Singleton, Ross was baptised in Singleton Baptist Church. Ross and Donna served with New Tribes Mission (now CrossView Australia) for 25 years, in training, leadership and mobilisation ministries in Australia and in short term roles in many Asian countries.
Ross is the executive director of International Mission Ministries (IMM). Ross has the heart of a mobiliser – educating, encouraging, challenging, assisting and motivating believers and churches to fulfill their God given role in world mission. Church planter training, leader development, mentoring and coaching leaders are natural extensions of Ross’ ministries. Together with Donna, their vision is to see men and women of faith catch God’s heart for the ‘least reached’, and have opportunity to partner in reaching them.

Jon, Janet, Jacinta and Josie Mitchell
Church Planters in PNG
Jon and Janet lived in Singleton and were members of Singleton Baptist Church when God called them to missions. They trained with New Tribes Missions (now CrossView Australia) and along with their daughters Jacinta and Josie have been serving in Papua New Guinea (PNG) since December 2006. Jon and Janet have been with their current remote village since 2013.
The people the Mitchells work with are subsistence farmers. The Mitchells have been learning the local heart language of their village friends, writing bible lessons in that language, teaching and helping with medical treatment. They have been reaching out to other villages and teaching chronologically about Jesus and the good news that God wants them to hear.
They are currently discipling a group of new believers in the Gospel.


Andrew, Elizabeth, Toby, Bethany, Nathaniel, and Shari-Anne Jenkins
MAF Pilot Trainer
In the late 90’s Andrew and Liz were actively involved in Singleton Baptist Church when they felt the Lord calling them to join the ministry of Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF). They joined the team at Ballarat in 1999, and since then they have served in Melbourne, Arnhem Land, and PNG. Since 2009 they have been based in Cairns, where Andrew serves as Senior Training Captain and Pilot Standardisation for the Asia-Pacific region.
They have four children: Toby (2000), Bethany (2002), Nathaniel (2004), and Shari-Anne (2008).
As MAF pilots fly in very demanding environments, they need specific training to enable them to work safely and efficiently. Andrew and Liz love being involved in training, equipping, empowering, and developing people so that they can serve remote and isolated communities with the love of Christ to the very best of their abilities through the unique work of MAF.
