Missions is an important facet of the work of the local church. At First Baptist, we believe that we should not only endeavor to evangelize the people of our own communities but also to be involved in missions work around the world. While we may not be able to physically travel to distant countries and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we can have an impact in other ways. We believe we can have a part in missions by faithfully and monetarily supporting dedicated individuals with a zeal and hunger to see people's lives changed through the power of God's Word. Not all of our missionaries are working on foreign fields, some are church planters and pastors here in the United States. Listed below are the missionaries that we faithfully support.
"God isn't looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him" - Hudson Taylor
While giving is integral to the work of missions, we believe the greatest need and the greatest aspect is prayer. Our hope is that as you look at our missionaries, that you would pray for God to protect, provide, and encourage these committed servants of the Lord.
