Salina Bible Church supports and sends many missionaries around the world, including the United States. Each year an annual Missions Conference is held in the fall along with special weekends with our missionaries.
The last Sunday of each month is designated as missionary Sunday at Salina Bible Church. A member of the missions committee brings a short report from one of our missionaries and all of the offerings--unless otherwise designated--go into our missions budget.
At the present time Salina Bible Church contributes to the support of 15 missionary couples and three widows, representing 12 mission boards, in amounts of $50.00 to $275.00 per month. This includes 2 couples and 3 widows who are ‘retired’. We also support Calvary Bible College.
For all of its 75 years Salina Bible Church has had a missionary emphasis. Missionaries frequently present their field in our regular services.
A special event for Salina Bible Church is its annual 8 day missionary conference held the last full week of October each year. At the present time we invite 3 missionaries to be with us for the week. If possible, we have those missionaries we support but we also invite others if our own missionaries are not available at the time. During that week we have the missionaries speak in all Sunday services and on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings. The missionaries take part in Awana on Wednesday and a men’s breakfast and ladies’ brunch or tea on Saturday.
Our conference in the past has been influential in calling young people and families to the mission field as well as encouraging us to be faithful in prayer and giving.
