Global Mission outreach through First Baptist happens in two vital ways.  We’re actively supporting several missionary families who are involved in evangelism and discipleship in cross cultural settings.  And, we’re very active in hands on short term missions involvement in locations all around the world!

Global Mission Support – 

First Baptist is excited to partner with the Eric Asp family, serving Jesus as career missionaries at the Kent State University campus.  This family grew up in our church and we’re thrilled to partner with them in this important campus ministry.

First Baptist also partners with Ron Morton, Regional Director for Word of Life Ministries.  Ron is actively involved in coordinating international youth camps and ministries in the Caribbean, in South America, and Africa.  Word of Life is helping to touch youth for Jesus, all around the world.

First Baptist also actively partners with our Conservative Baptist North Central Region,  God is moving across the 10 state North Central U.S., and we are excited to be a part of this effort for Christ.

Short Term Mission Involvement-

Every year, First Baptist youth and adults are involved in at least one short term mission’s trip, most often through the Word of Life Ministry.  Teams have traveled to the Dominican Republic, to Bolivia, to Ecuador, and most recently to Kenya. Teams are involved in work projects in various youth camps, and also serve in the youth camp ministry during their time on site. For more information on upcoming trips, or to get involved in our next short term trip, contact: office@shelbyfbc.com.
