Lexington, Kentucky, is comprised of 87 cooperating Southern

Kentucky
Baptist Convention
There are more than 760,000 Baptists in Kentucky who are members of
more than 2,500 autonomous Kentucky Baptist churches. Cooperating
together, these churches form the Kentucky Baptist Convention.
These local congregations also comprise 74 self-governing,
autonomous Baptist associations. Each church is
self-governing under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Churches elect
messengers (not delegates) to various denominational meetings,
including the annual convention.
Southern Baptist
Convention
The term "Southern Baptist Convention" refers to both the
denomination and its annual meeting. Working through 1,200 local
associations and 41 state conventions and fellowships, Southern
Baptists share a common bond of basic Biblical beliefs and a
commitment to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the entire
world.
WMU - Women's
Missionary Union
Founded in 1888, Woman's Missionary Union is an auxiliary of the
Southern Baptist Convention that seeks to equip adults, youth,
children and preschoolers with missions education to become
radically involved in the mission of God. Headquartered in
Birmingham, Ala., WMU is a nonprofit organization that offers an
array of missions resources including conferences, ministry ideas
and models, volunteer opportunities, curriculum for age-level
organizations, leadership training, books and more.
Cooperative Baptist Fellowship
CBF is a fellowship of Baptist Christians and churches who share a
passion for the Great Commission and a commitment to Baptist
principles of faith and practice. The Fellowship’s mission is to
serve Christians and churches as they discover and fulfill their
God-given mission.
Baptist Seminary
of Kentucky
Baptist Seminary of Kentucky prepares leaders who persuasively
present the Gospel and articulate what it means to be Christian.
They will be students of the Scriptures and the historical roots of
Christianity, persons of ethical integrity skilled in the tasks of
ministry while maintaining fidelity to historic Baptist
principles. Gary "Sonny" Price, Jr. & Lee Davis from our
congregation are attending at this time.
Oneida
Baptist Institute
Oneida Baptist Institute opened its doors January 1st, 1900 as a
school for children of the mountains of Eastern Kentucky. OBI was
the vision of Professor James Anderson Burns, a converted feudist
who believed that the Christian Gospel and education were the
answers to the cycle of violence between families in the mountains.
God blessed Burns' vision and the school was established and
prospered. We continue to have a vital mission to the children of
Eastern Kentucky.
