What Is the Board of International Ministries?
The American Baptist Board of International Ministries began its
pioneer mission work in 1814 in Burma, and today works in Asia, Africa, Europe,
the Middle East and the Americas serving more than 1,800 long-term and
short-term missionaries in more than 70 countries. Its central mission is to
help people come to faith in Jesus, grow in their relationship with God, and
change their worlds through the power of the Spirit. International Ministries
is supported solely through the generosity of churches and individuals, with a
portion of its income coming through the World Mission Offering, promoted each
fall in our American Baptist Churches.
Mission Treasury
Thank you for your contributions to Missions on September 29th.
We received $131 towards our budget. In order to meet our budget obligations we
need to receive approximately another $1200 per month for the next three months
from pledges, loose offering, Sunday School and Secret Place
contributions.
