At its heart, missions is about God's people connecting with people for other places and cultures with the goal of sharing the gospel with them. God has given us the mission to make disciples of all nations. At First Baptist Church, we seek to obey God through giving, sending, praying, and going. We hope that you will explore ways you can give, support and pray for those sent as missionaries and also discover ways you can go.

The Week of Prayer for Intertational Missions is November 30-December 7. Please pray and give generously to support the work of IMB missionaries through the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering.

We will have an interest meeting with information about 2026 Mission Trips. If you are thinking about going on a mission trip or just want more information about what they are, please attend this meeting. For more information, contact Randy Jackson, rjackson@fbcmilton.org.

Northern African and Middle Eastern Unengaged Peoples

Malta is a unique archipelago country found in the Mediterranean Sea. It has an interesting mixture of various cultures and was heavily influenced in many ways, primarily through language and agriculture, by the Arab world. Malta was part of the Arab-ruled world from the ninth century to the 11th century. During that time, Arabs introduced the islands to advanced agricultural techniques that led to much growth and prosperity. It became a trading hub, thus solidifying Malta’s status and importance in the Mediterranean. Today, approximately 9,800 Arab people live in Malta. Although the culture around them shows evidence of Christianity and Jesus, they remain unengaged and unreached with the gospel. Pray for the Spirit to work in the hearts of the Arab people of Malta and prepare them to receive the seed, the Word of God, and produce much fruit. Pray for good soil among the Arabs of Malta to hear the word and understand it and be ready to believe and follow Jesus (Matthew 13:8, 23). Pray that believers living around them will be faithful to sow the seed and share the salvation they have in Jesus, leading to much fruit for the glory of God.
