Purpose and Vision

 

Here at First Baptist Church of Summit, our Mission is ...

"Leading everyday people to love Jesus and make Him known."

We will measure whether we are accomplishing our Mission by evaluating our lives in 3 areas:

1. Our commitment to being Involved in personal, daily devotion.

2. Our desire to be Invested in people and ministry.

3. Our goal to be Intentional in connecting to the unchurched.

2. Empower leadership to use spiritual gifts.

3. Expand influence in community and beyond.

4. Excel in every ministry area.

5. Evaluate the simplicity of our process and structure.

6. Ensure Biblical authority behind all we do.

The Map is our process for accomplishing our Mission. We believe responsible church members are involved in ...
