The Constitution of First Baptist Church of Carrollton, GA states in Article III, Section O. Evangelism and Missions, that “Christ commissioned His Church to publish the good news of salvation to all the world, beginning in the immediate community. Hence, all Christians are called to engage in missions through praying, giving and witnessing.” The Missions Team of our Church is charged with the responsibility of leading the church in a focus on diverse mission endeavors by bringing together individuals, families, and our congregation to engage in missions here in our community and to the ends of the earth. The centerpiece of our Missions Strategy is the development, introduction, and implementation of a Five-Year Plan, 2018-2022
The Mission Strategy Components which support the noted commitment reference the call “to engage in missions through praying, giving and witnessing” could include the following:
