The Missions program of First Baptist Church of Mesa is vital to the church’s
purpose of extending the witness of Jesus Christ into all the world. Toward this
end, we support a number of local mission organizations and international
missionaries which share Christ as part of their ministry. We also take an
active role in short term mission trips, allowing us to directly “go into all
the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” (Mark 16:15)
Here are profiles on some of
our missionaries:

Our on-going home mission projects are the Shoe-Box Ministry to the homeless, wherein we fill shoe
boxes with toiletries and other small necessities. These we give, along with collections of food
and clean used clothing, to the East Mesa Baptist Church Food Bank and Sunshine
Acres Children's Home.
We collect eye glasses for the Eye Clinic in Haiti. Our special project last year was to send
clothing to our missionary, Stan Crews, in Baja California, Mexico. We also plan to assist the
Salvation Army over Thanksgiving and Christmas, hoping this will be an annual event.
