ABOUT US . . .
Webster-Claiborne and Bienville Associations are composed of 64 churches commited to reaching our world for Christ. The Great Commission appearing below, taken from Matthew 28:18-20, provides our orders. We seek to obey our Lord's command thus introducing our world to Jesus Christ.
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them
to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the
very end of the age." (N.I.V.)
Our churches are both different and the same. While one church is found at the end of a beautiful, winding, country lane, another is found on main street in the center of town. Some are small, others large. Some are filled with "city-folk", the others filled with "country-folk". Although different in many ways, they are all committed to the Lord Jesus Christ and seek to bring our world to Him.
Forty two churches in Webster and Claiborne parishes form the Webster-Claiborne Association. Twenty two churches in Bienville parish form the Bienville Association. While these two associations have their own officers and ministries, they also share many cooperative ministries as well. The common thread that brings these churches together is the Cooperative Program of the Southern Baptist Convention. This is a voluntary giving program in which churches combine their strengths to support mission causes around the world. Together these churches support missions through the North American Mission Board, International Mission Board, Louisiana Baptist Convention, and local Associational Missions. Throughout this web-site you will find information about these churches and the mission projects they support.
Director of Missions' MessageI welcome you to come and visit Webster-Claiborne and Bienville Baptist Associations' Missons & Ministry Center. The center provides a central location through which Southern Baptist work in our area of North Louisiana can be coordinated. Our center not only provides an office for the Director of Missions but also is a mission site and missions equipping center. Our goal is to equip churches for missions and ministry by offering resources to organize, train, and execute mission projects. Above all, our goal is to see people brought to salvation through Jesus Christ. We trust you will find our Web site informative and inspirational. May God bless you. Please notice the links to Southern Baptist Sites below for more information about who we are and what we do together. Also, notice the CHURCHES page for links to individual churches in our two associations.
