Missions Team
Matching Resources to Opportunities with our Member Churches
This team exists to identify and steward resources specifically related to our member churches outreach ministries and missions endeavors. The team serves to connect these resources entrusted to the CBBA with our member churches. These resources, whether it’s financial in the form of scholarships, program training and services such as VBS/WMU, or servant-leader volunteers from our summer missionaries, are aimed to support the various outreach ministries and missions engagement for our member churches throughout the year.
James Ng – Missions Team Leader
Summer Missions Program
Led by James Ng
The CBBA has a long and enjoyable partnership with the Mississippi Baptist Convention. Most every summer since 1999, the MBC sends college student missionaries who commits to spending a summer with CBBA to serve in and through our member churches. As a team, these students spend seven to eight weeks supporting and ministering alongside our local churches in outreach, camps, and retreats. James & wife Christy are members of Quinault Baptist Church in Kennewick, Washington.
Vacation Bible School Catalyst
Led by Barbara Meek
VBS is a proven program for reaching children and their families with many of our association churches. As a VBS Catalyst, Barbara encourages the use of the program, trains leaders in its use and coordinates shared resources through the association. Barbara is a member of Grace and Truth Community in West Richland, Washington.
Women’s Ministry and WMU
Led by Kaye Malody
Women’s Ministry and the WMU has a strong heritage in local churches as a catalyst for missionary action, education and support. This association ministry group comes alongside local church ministries to strengthen their leaders, provide shared resources and organize association-wide events that promote the cause of mission efforts in and through local churches. Kaye and her husband, Mike are members of Blue Mountain Baptist Church in Walla Walla where Mike is the pastor.
