“ Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,   teaching them to observe all I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”” Matthew 28:19-20 ARVBA Missions is way more than VBS props, Inflatables and Recreation Trailers! Throughout the year our member churches partner together to share Christ’s great gospel all over the world. Sometimes a couple of churches will share a missions adventure and sometimes the whole group of churches will come together to ‘mission’ a whole region like we do on ARVBA Day. On this page we will post information about upcoming Mission Ministries that directly involve the ARVBA as well as any and all Missions endeavors and partnerships shared by our member churches. There will be a lot of stuff here so to keep the page from being 40 miles long, we will many times link to a pdf file which not only can be viewed from your computer but can also be downloaded and printed should you wish to share the information with your church or just have a hard copy to keep with you. Check back often as info will be added as it comes in! Annual ARVBA Kansas City Mission Trip In March of 2015, 6 representatives from the ARVBA were invited to participate in one of NAMB’s Send Cities Vision Tours. After a whirlwind two day adventure, our own vision began to take form and a three to five year partnership with the Kansas City Church Planters began. In August of 2017, the Arkansas River Valley Baptist Association sponsored a 5-day, 4 event mission adventure involving all of our Recreation Ministry resources. 8 members from 3 ARVBA churches spearheaded the week-long event and were pleasantly surprised when a group from Hoxie Baptist Church paused on their way to Nebraska to lend a hand. The following year, participation from our churches almost tripled with 21 members from 4 ARVBA churches committed to the adventure. 5 block-party events in 4 different locations with at least four different people groups left our group both excited AND totallyt exhausted. A couple of videos can be accessed from the KC Missions page. Check them out. This year (2019) we will be taking the largest group ever as well as adding a couple of remodeling tasks to our usual block party events. This annual mission trip is open to all ARVBA churches, their members, and any guests we they might invite. The cost is only $75.00 per person and the destination is only 6-7 hours away!
