A large group of people gathered outdoors in front of a rust-colored sign that reads "Chanku Waste Ranch. The Good Road in the Badlands." The group includes children and adults, some seated on the grass and others standing behind the sign. In the background are open fields and rolling hills under a cloudy sky.

Missions at FBC Athens

“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” - Matthew 28:18-20

The love for missions, both local and international, are at the heart of the people of First Baptist Church Athens. FBCA is actively seeking God’s leadership in ministry around the world.

At FBC Athens, we seek to make disciples who, through the empowerment of God’s Spirit, obey Christ’s commands in making disciples in Athens and Henderson County and with strategic partners throughout Texas, America, and the world to do our part in fulfilling the Great Commission in this generation.
