As the church, we are called to reach people from the doorsteps of the church to the ends of the earth. Community Missions is a unique blend of ministry opportunities that you and your church can plug into to share Jesus with people in your community and beyond.

Without a plan or strategy, reaching your community might seem like a daunting task. However, connecting with one or more of the ministries below is a great place to start! From the ministries below, you will find many different opportunities. Some are statewide, one day annual events. Others are local partnerships that occur year round.

Every church is different and needs different ministry outlets to plug into. Look over the list below and click the links to learn more about the specifics of each ministry, or reach out to the ABSC Missions Team to craft a unique strategy for your church today.
