In Our World

 WMBC Missions

Missions are an important part of WMBC, and our mission opportunities allow individuals to live out the Great Commission. Each year we partner with an organization to support mission work through resources or personnel. We encourage you to prayerfully consider to join us to serve Christ, His people, and world throughout the year.

Our mission work has been everything from helping families recover from Harvey through manual and skilled labor, going to the Mexican border and into Mexico proper to help those seeking refuge in our country, and going to Huehuetenango, Guatemala to help an orphanage with supplies, skilled labor, and letting the people there know that they are loved and worthy of love.

Because of the pandemic, we’ve been limited in what we can do, but we’re always seeking out new opportunities to serve.

 Rio Grand Valley

For years we have served the Rio Grande Valley. On Martin Luther King weekend, Labor Day weekend, and Memorial Day weekend we take a team to serve on the Texas and Mexico border where we serve refugees, asylum seekers, and our neighbors in Mexico. This hands-on experience is open to anyone in the community. To learn more about the upcoming Memorial Day weekend trip, where we will be supporting the work of Catholic Charities Humanitarian Respite Center, please contact Lisa by clicking here.

Operation Christmas Child

Each year, we collect donations and assemble boxes in early November. Those shoeboxes, filled with toys and essentials, are then delivered to children in need around the world. You can find the list of items still needed to meet our 2024 goal of packing and sending 300 boxes.

Missions Support

WMBC is a major supporter of missions in the city and around the world. A percentage of every offering we take goes to support the work of our local Braes Interfaith Ministries, the Union Baptist Association of greater Houston, the Baptist General Convention of Texas, and Global Missions of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. In addition each November is our Missions Emphasis month where we take a special offering to support the above work as well as urban ministry in the city, special missions projects, Baptist World Alliance, and our own WMBC mission work both locally and internationally.
