Affiliation
We are affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). The SBC is a collection of churches who share similar core values and have intentionally chosen to join together in friendly cooperation to reach the world for Jesus Christ. We are also a part of a local SBC association, the Kansas City Kansas Baptist Association and, on the state level, the Kansas/Nebraska Convention of Southern Baptists.
We affirm and value our cooperation with the Southern Baptist Convention in achieving our worldwide mission; affiliated churches that adopt The Baptist Faith and Message (2000) or a similar statement in accord with the beliefs expressed in these Southern Baptist documents. We also partner, on occasion, with other Christian organizations and individuals in pursuing the fulfillment of the Great Commission of our Lord (Matt 28:18-20). The ultimate task to which we are called, and which most assuredly binds us together, is the mission of reaching people for Jesus Christ and making disciples for His Kingdom.
