Missions

The North Roanoke Baptist Association (NRBA) is a group of 64 Southern Baptist churches working in Edgecombe, Halifax, Nash, and Northhampton counties in North Carolina.  The association is affiliated with the Baptist State Convention of NC, the Southern Baptist Convention, the International Mission Board (IMB), and North American Mission Board (NAMB).


Vermont is the "least religious" state in the United States.  Dr. Terry Dorsett, Director of Missions, and association churches are "Partnering together in stewardship development and leadership training resulting in church strengthening and mobilization for new ministries and church starts."


The Tar Roanoke Chaplaincy is a ministering agent that provides services for the incarcerated and related persons.  TRC provides Christ-centered care and general support to inmates, families and staff members at twelve facilities in North Carolina on a regular basis.


IMB's (International Mission Board) mission is to make disciples of all peoples in fulfillment of the Great Commission found in Matthew 29:18-20.  Over 6,000 people groups - 1.7 billion people - still live with little or no access to the Gospel.


NAMB (North American Mission Board) is engaged with reaching unbelievers, planting churches, and strengthening existing churches in North America.  NAMB currently has over 5000 missionaries with thousands more participating in short term mission projects.
