​Our mission is to be a praying church, knowing that God hears and answers prayer from a heart that is right before Him and prayed in surrender to His perfect will, not ours. 
Our mission is to be a church that follows as Christ leads, and only as He leads.
Our mission is to be a church that is there for anyone who needs prayer and encouragement.
Our mission is to be a church that God works through to bring glory to His name and His name alone.

     Pray for the small Churches. Even they have a place in God's work.   God wants to see them grow and spread his word and Glory. If you are looking for a Church or feel God has a mission for you, Pray. It may be that your mission is to join a small Church to help it grow for God's Glory. Small Churches cannot grow with out mission minded and loving servants of the Lord. 
     So many people will pass up a small Church because it may not have many cars in the parking lot or it may only have a few people in the pews. God has a great commission and purpose for large Churches, they can do more and reach farther for Jesus than most small Churches. But keep in mind that all Jesus believing and Bible teaching small Churches are striving to grow to reach just as many people for Jesus. 
      If you feel God is wanting you to do something for his glory but do not know what it is, Pray.  If you feel it may be to be a missionary for a small Church Please stop by and visit Black River Baptist Church at 1197 T HWY, Poplar Bluff MO 63901.
      We would love to welcome you and share Gods love and Glory!
