Missions

Lincoln Avenue Baptist Church is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, The Tennessee Baptist Convention and the East Tennessee Baptist Association.  We financially support missions through the Cooperative Program as well as the following special offerings throughout the year:  Annie Armstrong Offering for North American Missions, Mother’s Day Offering for Tennessee Baptist Children’s Home, Golden Offering for Tennessee state Missions, and Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions.  In addition to financial support, we believe in missions application and education.  The following are offered to reach this goal:

 

Mission Action:
A church-wide mission trip is planned each year.  The current strategy of LABC is to travel once a year for missions work, rotating between foreign and domestic locations.  Some of LABC's past mission works include the Andes Mountains of Venezuela, and Pass Christian, MS.

Another facet of LABC missions is our daughter church, Iglesia Bautista Rios de Agua Viva (Rivers of Living Water Baptist Church).  For more information about Rios church, click here.
