Missionaries In Our Culture
Missional Mobilization

What does it mean to be Missional? "It means that we understand ourselves to be missionaries in today's culture. Missionaries are those whose lives are constituded by a mission: To know Him and to make Him known-this is our purpose, our goal, and our end in life. An ongoing relationship with God should result in a lifestyle that is God-centered and seeks to incarnate Christ. How You can Become Missional! Accept the call of Christ to live out your life as a missionary amidst a culture that constantly tries to sell us a different purpose and a different vision in life. We are missional in that we desire to be the incarnate Christ immersed in the world without becoming a product of it. If we are going to be the incarnate Christ in today's world, then our purpose, goal, and end in life will revolve around knowing God and making Him know."-David Crowder

Block Party Trailer Ministry

Welcome to Block Party Central Where The Church is moving outside of the "church walls" to SHARE JESUS!

What is a block Party?

It’s a community party for the community and the church. It’s non-threatening, it’s intimate, and it provides the local church an opportunity to move outside the four walls of the church and into the community to make a difference!

How can your church host a block party?

Your church will need to complete our block party training course with a group of leaders from your church. You will need to reserve the Block Party Trailer well in advance. Dates are limited due to the frequent use of the trailer.

First time use is FREE and a $75 fee thereafter Check with JCBA about insurance policies Appropriate paperwork will also need to be filled out At this time the block party trailer is for Jones County Baptist Association churches only If you are a church outside of the JCBA and would like to host a block party we will do our best to partner one of our churches with you for the purpose of ministry. For more information please contact Rena Register, MMC at 601-649-8441
