OUR VISION
The leadership of Associational Missions Ministries envisions a day in which there will be healthy kingdom associations throughout the Georgia Baptist Convention.

The Associational Missions Ministries serves 92 associations in the state of Georgia. Twenty-one of these associations make up six area programs. Another twelve are combined into six joint associational programs.
STAFF
Support Services
By request, the Associational Missions Specialist will visit with Associational Missionaries for consultation and discussion on associational work and matters. If you would like to schedule a visit, please contact our office.
Referral Service
Help is available for associations looking for Associational Missionaries. Our office receives resumes of prospective Associational Missionaries and makes them available to associations searching for new Associational Missionaries. If you would like to present your name to search committees or if your association would like our assistance, please contact our office.
Area Advisory Committees
Each spring, each Area Advisory Committee meets with their area program for a business session and luncheon. These meetings enhance cooperation with the GBC, Area Advisory Committees, and associational leadership.
