From our very beginning as a church plant, Century Baptist has had a solid emphasis on supporting global outreach.  Over the years the church has contributed thousands of dollars, has sent many mission teams for short term ministry, has invested in the lives of young people entering ministry, and has worked to see that local and regional ministries are funded.  The church’s constitution states that at least 10% of giving by the congregation will be directed toward global ministries.  And as our church has grown in size and budget, so has the global ministries budget.  It is with a passion to see the work of God expand throughout the world that the following convictions are shared.  It is the desire and longing of the Global Ministries Advisory Team that Century Baptist Church carry out these convictions to their fullest extent.  For a further expansion of these convictions you are invited to check them out HERE.

1. Everything about God is seen from the perspective of purposeful mission.

2. God desires that all people would know and worship him.

3. The church of Jesus Christ is commissioned to make disciples of all peoples by going, baptizing and teaching.

4. We follow an Acts 1:8 pattern of ministry to reach all peoples with the gospel of Jesus Christ-locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally.

5. The proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ is the primary goal of the church in reaching the world, with support ministries undergirding it.

6. It is not the goal for every believer to become a missionary, but it is the goal for every believer to become a World Christian.

7. The nurture and development of missionaries is one of the goals of the local church.

8. Prayer is a vital weapon in the battle for the souls of all peoples.

9. Commitment to a simpler lifestyle will release greater resources for global impact.

10. The goal of reaching people with the gospel of Jesus Christ may involve suffering.
