Missions

Part of our church’s mission statement is “to share the gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed.”  Missional in focus, our church voluntarily cooperates with and supports the work of God through other Baptist groups, including the Baptist World Alliance (www.baptistworld.org), the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship (www.cbf.net), the Greenville Baptist Association (www.greenvillebaptist.org), and the Southern Baptist Convention (www.sbc.net). 

Currently, 10% of all undesignated offerings are channeled through what we call “Cooperative Missions.”  Anyone giving to ESBC can choose to designate that portion of their offering to the ESBC Greater Way Partnership Fund, the Baptist World Alliance, the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, or the Southern Baptist Convention Cooperative Program. The ESBC Greater Way Partnership Fund is used for additional funding for current mission partners, missions emergencies or spontaneous missions needs that arise, or new missions opportunities. In total, our church gives well over a tithe of all undesignated offerings to support the work of Christ both near and far.

In addition to our financial support of missions, we offer mission trips, experiences, and projects in support of Community Missions, National Missions, and International Missions.  For more information, please follow the links below.
