FieldPartner was founded by lifelong missionaries Ross and Christine Paterson in this final season of their active ministry, born from a passion to serve the global mission community and share their experience. It is a growing global network with links to partner organisations working in many different places.
We are funded by generous supporters like you!
Ross Paterson
Co-Founder
Ross Paterson’s original call from God, in the early 60s, was to serve China – her people and her Church. He has been faithful to that call, going first to Taiwan as a missionary in 1969. Today, Ross travels across a number of nations, preaching and teaching and sharing their desire to see the church of Jesus Christ embrace a biblical burden for world mission. Ross created the Antioch Factor Course.
Christine Paterson
Co-Founder
Christine Paterson was brought up in a mission environment – both her parents served for over forty years as missionaries in Africa, where Christine spent her early years. This unique background has helped her to be the support and ministry partner for her husband Ross in the various countries to which the Lord has led them. Christine created the Crossing Cultures 101 Courses.

Dean of Studies (English Language)
The Biblical mandate of the Great Commission applies to every believer. Some are called to leave their context and ‘go’ to the nations. Others are called to stay and ‘send’ (or support) those who are going. This might be as professional (like a sending agency or a church leader), a family member or friend (giving, emotional and practical support), or a ‘supporter’ (offering prayer and financial support). Or a mixture of all of these, and more!
We believe that the local church is an integral part of sending. Find out more here.
At FieldPartner, our vision is that anybody who goes to the mission field should be properly trained, well resourced and wholeheartedly supported.
