Apart from our institutions, the continuing ministries of the denomination are carried on by numerous boards and committees that are elected by and responsible to Synod, our highest court. The Synod has declared that church planting should be a high priority and has encouraged each presbytery to adopt a goal for new mission churches.
New works are under consideration in every presbytery.
The Home Mission Board also provides help to local congregations in the area of evangelism and church growth. The Board of Foreign Missions motivates and leads the denomination to fulfill the Great Commission by planting strong churches outside North America and by ministering to nationals wherever they may be. Over the years, Reformed Presbyterian missionaries have been active in Australia, China, Cyprus, Japan, Manchuria, and Syria. Upon recommendation of their sessions, others have served in specialized foreign ministries under the oversight of other agencies. The Women's Missionary Fellowship encourages women in prayer, evangelism, service and changed personal lives.
