Baptist Men on Mission

Baptist Men on Mission continues to enjoy the privilege of seeing God at work with "on mission" families who attend Kentucky Baptist Churches. The ministries of the Baptist Men on Mission department provide these believers with a variety of ministries so that they are able to fulfill their God-given mission. Men and women, youth, and boys and girls are challenged and given opportunities to be "on mission" every day wherever they are called by God to be. We welcome the honor of working with all of them.

Resort–Leisure Ministries
Kentucky is one of the leading states in the resort and leisure opportunities. Our state park system is among the best and our waterways allow many recreation outlets. As a result, tourism and recreation are huge attractions and diversions for millions of people who live both inside and outside of Kentucky. This reality should be important to the Christian community. Areas of outreach in Kentucky include state parks, campgrounds, racetracks, airports, resort communities and sports ministries, to name only a few. Contact Mike Watts for additional information regarding resort ministry opportunities and involvement.
