Mzab Missions is a new misisons ministry of First Baptist Church.  On October 29, 2006 the members of FBC committed to take part in a prayer partnership with the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention called PRAYER PLUS.

     PRAYER PLUS is an intercessory prayer ministry where churches commit to pray for an unengaged people group.  A participating church commits to regularly and fervantly pray for this group of people whom have never heard the Gospel.

     The members of FBC have selected the Mzab of Algeria as their people group to lift up in prayer.  Every member of our church is called to pray for the following:

     * The Holy Spirit of God will create a hunger for Christ in the hearts of the Mzab. 
     *  Opportunites to send missionaries to these people will present themselves and that the Internation Mission Board of the SBC would have the rescources to send missionaries to this area.
     *  God's Holy Word be shared with these people and the plan of salvation be presented and accepted by the Mzab.
     *  Any barriers that have been established to keep the Gospel from making its way to these people be broken down.
     *  The Mzab of Algeria will accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord and engage in a rewarding relationship with God through His Son.

     We at FBC are excited about this opportunity and new challenge.  Look for updates to what is going on in the world of missions among the Mzab.
