Over one hundred and fifty years ago, the
Beulah Baptist Association came into existence. Churches from
Lake, Obion and Weakley Counties joined together for fellowship,
encouragement and doctrinal purity. As the number of churches
grew in Weakley County all but six made a decision to form the
Weakley Baptist Association. Beulah Baptist Association
continues to thrive. We are now made up of 44 churches and one
mission. We are diverse in size and in style. Some of our
churches are traditional, others less traditional and others
contemporary. We minister to every segment of society. We reach
out in missions locally, in our state, across the country and
around the world.
Our Vision is to provide a
biblically based support ministry to our member churches that
will enhance their ministry as well as the Kingdom of God.
Our Purpose We have a clear
purpose! Our purpose is to help the Churches of
Beulah Baptist Association to voluntarily link together to: 1)
reach Obion, Lake, and Weakly Counties for Christ 2) engage in
Missions locally, domestically, and internationally 3) support
and strengthen families 4)train local leadership to be effective
leaders in the church, the home, and community.
Our Attitude: Together We Can!
We have a committed people. Beulah is blessed to have many of
our pastors who have served their church and the association for
ten plus years. Our lay people are active in their churches and
in our association. Every year we see more and more people
involved in ministry and in missions.
We have a consecrated plan. The Great Commission of Matthew
teaches us that as churches and as an association we are to make
disciples of every nation. Acts 1:8 defines the plan by
challenging us to reach our Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the
end of the world. Our churches accomplish this through local,
domestic and international missions.
Beulah Baptist Association is ready to meet the challenges God
brings to us. Our future remains bright. Our desire is that in
all we do we will glorify God.
In Christ Service,
Jack Long
Director of Missions
