Missionary Adoption Program (MAP)

What is MAP?

In recognition of the sacrificial services of missionaries around the world, our members have taken on the responsibility to aid in financial support of their work. The MAP (Missionary Adoption Program) is one means which our people have been able to fulfill this goal. A love gift offering, which is solely appointed to the MAP program, is collected for distribution through the national MAP program. A voluntary , once a month offering, is collected through the Sunday morning Bible Study classes. This offering is above and beyond the regular giving and offerings. Through this voluntary giving, Wylie Baptist Church has been blessed to be a regular contributor to growing missions around the world.

Our Goal in Missions

“our work only begins where God’s grace has laid the foundation. Our work is not to save souls, but to disciple them. Salvation and sanctification are the work of God’s saving grace, and our work as his disciples is to disciple others’ lives until they are totally yielded to god.”

Our Vision as a Church in the Body of Christ

Missions are a part of our Church’s overall vision statement. The Family of God Growing in Faith. As stated in the definition of the vision: Exalt God-equip disciples-encourage others- extend Jesus.

Our part in missions is the “extend Jesus”. This calls us to be engaged in activities presenting the gospel of Jesus in our Jerusalem (Abilene), Judea (Texas), Samaria (United States), and the uttermost parts of the world.

We seek to accomplish this mission by aiming at specific goals which are spelled out in Christ’s teachings.

Our Vision can be captured in three words:

Pray, Give, Go

Pray Give Go

Pray for the Holy Spirit to equip and bless our missionary partners in their call to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ where they serve. Through prayer and financial support, we can all aid in the call.

God calls all believers to be involved in bearing one another’s burdens. He also calls us to support those who are faithful and likeminded in sharing the Gospel. We give to support both short and long term workers in the field.

We ourselves go into the world completing the admonition to spread the Good News of Christ in the everyday circumstances of our daily lives. Each of us has the opportunity to be a witness wherever we are.
