Our Mission
Fulfilling the Great Commission
Our Mission at Swift Creek Baptist Church
At Swift Creek Baptist Church, our foundation is deeply rooted in the timeless command given by our Lord and Savior. We embrace The Great Commission as our ultimate calling, a divine directive that shapes every aspect of our ministry.
As it is written:
"And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
— Matthew 28:18–20.
This powerful mandate inspires us to reach out with the transformative message of Jesus Christ, both locally within our community and globally.
