Lebanon
North Park Church has also partnered with the Philemon Project in Beirut, Lebanon to provide a safe, affordable Christian daycare to the children of refugees, migrant workers, and the working poor.
Russia
Though Russia has been slowly shutting out western missionaries in the past few years, North Park Church continues to support the work of a medical missions agency that continues to minister freely.

North Park Church also supports the work of Living Stone Reformed Mission which ministers in Gonaives, Haiti. Over the past few years, North Park has helped the mission complete the building of a school, a seminary, and a church in order to advance the kingdom of God in Haiti.
