Local Missions
Beaumont’s FBC strategically partners with local ministries that are actively working to share Christ’s love and meet the tangible needs of our community. Each local ministry that we partner with shares the same mission–to share Christ’s love and make disciples. As they focus on specific people and specific needs, they are able to minister very intentionally. We get the opportunity to use our unique giftings and callings to join these local ministries in their rescue mission here in Southeast Texas.
