Welcome to the WCB Ministry and Ministry Center
Webster-Claiborne
and Bienville Associations are composed of 60 churches committed 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
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 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, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20 NIV
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.
Thirty-five churches in Webster and Claiborne parishes form the Webster-Claiborne Association. Twenty-five 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.
Jeff Hoffman serves as our Director of Missions / Associational Mission Strategist.

Annual Church Profile-The 2025 ACP is open. You can go ahead and do your leadership so that after your church year ends you only have to do your statistical page. Make sure that in column e. of the report that you are only putting what you send to us here at the association. It makes a difference in the statistical reports we pull for the association and we want to do our best to provide accurate information. The convention puts in what your church sends to them.
We had a church donate some VBS material if anyone is interested. They are Jungle Journey & Wonder Junction.
Have a great week everyone and I hope to see you next week.
