Westminster Theological Seminary exists to "extend the knowledge of the glory of God in Christ until that knowledge covers the earth as the waters cover the sea" (see Habakkuk 2:14). We offer graduate-level theological education at our Philadelphia and Texas campuses and through programs of study in New York City, London, and Seoul.

Our specific mission is to support the church in its mandate to equip the saints for ministry. We pursue this mission in three ways. First, we seek to form men for ordained gospel ministry as pastors, teachers, evangelists, missionaries, and other tasks specified by the church. Second, we seek to train men and women to serve Christ in kingdom ministries other than those that require ordination. Third, we seek to serve as a center for Christian research and scholarship and to communicate the fruits of our labors to the church and the world.

Border Evangelism and Mercy Ministries works in towns along the Mexico-U.S. border to plant churches. From BEAMM's mission statement on their website:

Our mission is to reach strategic cities for Christ through church multiplication movements resulting in a transformation of society for the glory of God. God created man in His image. This image has been tarnished by sin to the point where many place little value on human life, their own or others.

Border Evangelism And Mercy Ministries (BEAMM), a ministry of Mission to the World (MTW), Mission to North America (MNA), and the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), believes that in light of this fallen image, our mission must seek the restoration of the whole man, made possible only by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, which motivates us to care for the spiritual, physical, intellectual, and emotional needs of those we seek to serve.

NCPC teams up with BEAMM every year for a mission trip to Juarez, Mexico.
