Prairie Valley Baptist Church

Missions

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations

Matthew 28:19

God left no room for misunderstanding. The church is here on the earth to share the gospel of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus the Christ and eternal life only through faith in Him, and make disciples of those who respond to the gospel in all nations (Matt. 28:19-20; I Cor. 15:1-4; John 14:6). PVBC is actively involved in doing that at home and abroad. From Alaska to Bolivia and from Edinburg and Laredo, Texas to the Philippines we support missionaries who are taking the gospel where people have not heard its life giving, life changing truth.  In addition, we support the Gideons taking God's Word all throughout our nation and beyond as well as Texas Baptist Home who saves lives through crisis pregnancy counseling and connecting babies with Christian families who will love them and lead them to Christ.

Let us not ever let our missionaries think because they are out of sight, that they are also out of our minds and prayers. Take time today to write them and send them encouraging words. Ask them questions about their ministry. Get to know them personally through correspondence.
