Mission

This statement best expresses the desires and interests of the members of the church which, from its beginning has striven to obey the Great Commission of a loving Christ to "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." The goal of the church is that the scope of missionary work be broadened.

Our Mission Team is constantly seeking means of establishing and developing wider missionary activities. Dedicated and trained workers are now serving in this county as well as in Cambodia, Canada, England, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan, Lithuania, New Guinea, New Zealand, Russia, Singapore, Tanzania, and numerous other locales. Many present and former members of Fellowship Baptist are in the Lord's service in various areas. It has always been a source of joy when our congregation has seen many of our own people go into full time Christian service.

We desire to create within our own people a willingness to say, with Isaiah, "Here am I; send me."

We finance our world missions outreach through the Faith Promise Offering - committing by faith to give over and above our tithe. All funds contributed through Faith Promise go directly to our world mission outreach. These commitments are generally made during our annual World Missions Conference in November. A brochure explaining Faith Promise is in the hymnal rack of each pew.
