Missions

"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."

-Matthew 28:19 NIV-


McQueeney Baptist is a Mission Minded Church. We have teams go on mission trips every year.


**Please visit our Photo Gallery to see more Missions photos.**


Under Future Missions, you can greatly assist our missionaries in their quest to spread the word of Christ globally by making a monetary pledge. It does not have to be much, and it would be aiding our Church Members in Discipling to those who have not heard the life changing words of Jesus.


Future Missions:

  • Kathryn, a college student, is planning to visit several countries in the Middle East* this summer where she will be studying Arabic, witnessing, and working in a refugee camp.
    • If you would like to donate to her trip, please make a check out to Go Now Missions and send it to McQueeney Baptist, P.O. Box 44, McQueeney, TX 78123. The checks need to be in the office by the end of May 2011.
