Go therefore and make disciples of all nations
Matthew 28:19
Our goal for missions at First Baptist Church is to reach into each geographical location as given in the Acts 1:8 mandate. This begins with our church and in our community, it then extends to the "end of the earth." We support the Cooperative Program with a percentage of our budget receipts, take up special mission offerings throughout the year, and have an active Woman's Missionary Union (WMU). Through our budget we also support local ministries such as Mercy Medicine, House of Hope of the Pee Dee, Lighthouse Ministries, and Child Evangelism Fellowship. A link to each of these ministries is provided below. In addition to these community relationships, we are also involved with the Baptist Collegiate Ministry, Helping Florence Flourish, and we plan mission trips and projects throughout the year. Please return to this website for updated information for what is being planned next.
