WAYS TO PRAY:

Provision for the Displaced: We ask for God’s provision for all who have lost their homes or have been forced to evacuate. May He provide shelter, food, and essential needs, knowing He is our great Provider.

Restoration of Infrastructure: We pray for the swift repair of vital roads, bridges, and services. May communities quickly rebuild and restore what’s been lost.

Comfort for the Grieving: For those mourning the loss of loved ones or facing the anxiety of being out of touch with family and friends, we ask for God’s peace to surround them—a peace that surpasses all understanding.

Strength for Responders and Volunteers: We lift up first responders, volunteers, churches, and relief organizations working tirelessly to aid in recovery efforts. May God grant them safety, strength, and wisdom as they serve.

Unity in Compassion: Finally, we pray for unity and compassion to prevail in these challenging times. May communities come together in love, support, and resilience.

"Sing to the LORD, all the earth!

Tell of His salvation from day to day.

Declare His glory among the nations,

His marvelous works among all peoples!"

1 Chronicles 16:23-24

The central mission of the Church is to glorify God by making disciples. We believe that includes the mission to make disciples of all nations. Our desire is for every man, woman, and child around the world to have the opportunity to hear, understand, and respond to the gospel. There are several ways in which we can be a part of blessing the nations: Pray, Give, and Go.

Pray

The most important thing you can do for the nations is to pray! We are so thankful for our Global Mission Partners, who are sharing the truth of the Gospel with lost and hurting people around the world. Select the title to learn more about each Partner and how you can pray for their specific needs and get updates on how God is working in far reaching places around the world.

Give

When you give to the general budget of FBCMI, you are giving to missions. 10% of all general budget giving is designated to missions, including any general mission designated funds. We also contribute to the Southern Baptist's unified and comprehensive plan of giving to statewide, national, and international mission work.

Go

Our church body is excited to walk alongside you as God stirs your heart to serve the nations, whether through a short-term mission trip, internship program, or as a career missionary. We are committed to partnering with those He calls with prayer, encouragement, support, and care on and off the mission field.
