North American Missions

The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest...to send out workers into His harvest field. Matthew 9:37-38

 
The purpose of the North American Mission Board (NAMB) is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, to start New Testament congregations, to minister to persons in the name of Christ, and to assist churches in the United States and Canada in effectively performing these functions. First Baptist Church of Iva supports the NAMB in these endeavors through prayer, education, giving, and through going. Click here to learn more about the North American Missions Board.
