FBCH MISSIONS TEAM

Under the guidance of the Missions Committee Team, First Hurst has expanded missions involvement over the last two years. As most Southern Baptist Churches do, we are part of a worldwide missions effort through the Baptist General Convention of Texas (BGCT), the North American Mission Board (NAMB), and the International Mission Board (IMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention through our Cooperative Program Giving. We support these missions works through prayer and sending people, money, and supplies.

    First Hurst, under the leadership of one our lay people, Fred Meek, has linked arms with the Bill Glass Champions for Life Ministry. Bill Glass founded this ministry over 31 years ago, and today it is the nation's oldest and largest prison evangelism ministry. The mission statement for the ministry is, "Assisting the church in igniting Christians to share their faith." Practically every weekend there is a team of men and women from all over the United States going into pre-selected prisons, sharing their faith, and changing lives. It is a proven fact that the only prison reform that truly works is one that causes people to change their hearts. Who better to do that than our own Lord Jesus? We simply act as His messengers by carrying His message. If you are asking yourself, "Who can participate?" Men and women age 18 or older who have a desire to share the Gospel are welcome. Rookie teammates are required to attend a comprehensive training seminar before the weekend begins. There is no charge to participate. Online schedules are available at the Champions for Life website, or you watch this brief video about the ministry. Come join us in this exciting ministry. You can contact Fred Meek by email if you are interested. Upcoming ministry dates are listed below.
