South Carolina Baptist Convention
Messengers to the 2008 SC Baptist Convention Annual Meeting voted to adopt a new statewide initiative. “Experiencing Kingdom Life” will begin January 2009 and continue until 2013.
The vision statement reads, “To urgently take the whole gospel to the whole world – that all may be whole.” The mission of the SC Baptist Convention staff is to “serve as kingdom partners with churches, associations and institutions of the SC Baptist Convention and the Southern Baptist Convention in fulfilling their role to ‘…Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.’”
