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.

We are making plans for mission trips in 2025. Most of the trips listed below are still in the planning stage but appear here so that you can begin to pray about where God wants you to go in 2025.

Middle Eastern Arabs in the Southern United Kingdom

Rama arrived in the United Kingdom after fleeing her home country in the Middle East. Her family would not provide the basic human rights she believed that she deserved, and her government would not support her once she challenged her family. It took two days to escape, although her family did not try to find her. She arrived at the airport and was able to board an airplane with the ticket she had purchased in secret when her family had gone shopping a few days before. She clutched her passport and prayed that nobody would notice how badly she was shaking under her layered clothes. She arrived in the U.K. and asked for asylum at the airport. Her journey ahead would not be easy, and she knew that her life would never be the same. She would never hear her mother's voice again. Pray that Rama will be open to studying the Bible with a new Christian friend. Pray that she will experience love from God that will surpass her previous experiences.

Church Planter | Cincinnati, Ohio

"Pray we will have wisdom this new year in order to guide God’s people to carry out His plan and purpose. Pray for my family, for protection and encouragement to continue to do God’s work here in Cincinnati, Ohio. Pray for our housing situation. Our house is about 50 minutes to an hour from our church building. I would like to better minister to our people by being much closer to them. Pray for spiritual growth in my life and in our church."
