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, 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 28:19-20
Sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ
FBC Blue Ridge is committed to making a difference with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our community, our nation, and our world. Our mission vision is for a world, near and far, saturated with the Gospel: that Jesus loves them, died to save them from their sins, and will give them eternal life and eternal relationship with God. Led and empowered by the Holy Spirit, here are the many ways that we are working and partnering with others to see this vision unfold.
S. A. L. T. Serving And Loving Together
Every 4th Saturday of the month is alive at FRFBC with our day of community service. At 9:30 a.m., we meet in the fellowship hall for snacks, prayer, and Scripture. We then break into three groups and go out to share the love of God with downtown Blue Ridge, senior adults, and single parents in our community from 10:00 a.m. to noon.

Morganton Mountaintown Baptist Association Ministries
BRFBC partners with our local Baptist Association to assist in local ministries such as health, dental and food distribution.
Collaborating with the North American Mission Board
We partner with NAMB for the sake of ministering in regions near us with disaster relief, assisting church planters, and a variety of other ministries organized or assisted in direction by NAMB.
Collaborating with Other Churches
BRFBC partners with other local congregations to minister in a wider area of our region. We are looking to branch out toward ministries in the Atlanta area, specifically to the unreached of these areas.
Collaborating with the International Mission Board
We partner with IMB to support missions financially, but we also partner with some IMB missionaries on the field in ministry. We have taken groups to Japan and Jamaica and are looking to branch out even further in 2020.
Collaborating with Independent Missions
We also work hand in hand with a number of independent missions and missionaries to bring the Gospel around the world. Some of the independent groups we are looking to partner with in the near future are in Peru and in the Middle East.
