  Welcome to the Sandy Creek Baptist Association!
 

Our purpose is to partner with the 49 churches and missions of the Sandy Creek

Baptist Association providing assistance, training, resources, mission opportunities,

fellowship events, and more as they seek to fulfill the Great Commission of our Lord

in their communities.  As a missions mobilization center, we help provide ways

to be involved in missions both abroad and at home.   

 We hope you will find our Web site informative and helpful. Please contact us with questions

or comments if we can be of further service.
