All Christians are Missionaries

"Our mission is to carry on Christ's redemptive ministry to the spiritual and life needs of people...."

This, the first segment of our church's mission statement, reflects the purpose behind all that Hayes Barton Baptist Church does through missions locally, nationally and internationally.  We are a missions-focused church, offering opportunities for our members to use their God-given gifts and abilities in a wide-range of activities and settings.
 

How do we define "missions?"

Missions is the deliberate and diligent effort of the congregation, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, to extend the gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed to as many people as possible locally and throughout the world, both Christian and non-Christian. 

How are we involved in missions?
