General Baptist Ministries is actively engaged in mission work across the United States, focusing on church planting, ministry partnerships, and outreach to migrant communities.

Recent efforts include partnerships with All Nations Church in Jacksonville and Daytona, Florida; the Sheffield Association in California; and new church plants in Lebanon, Tennessee, Bowling Green, Kentucky, and Chula Vista, California. In addition, stateside mission trips continue to be a key part of engaging and equipping local churches for hands-on ministry within their own country.

General Baptist Ministries has been serving in Guam since 1911, making it our first and longest-standing area of ministry outside the continental United States.

Over the years, God has used this ministry to reach residents, guest workers, and military families across the island. The original church in Hågatña was strengthened under the leadership of Reverend and Mrs. Arthur U. Logan, followed by several faithful pastors throughout the 1920s and 1930s.

In 1935, Joaquin Flores Sablan became the first ordained Chamorro Protestant minister and led the church through the hardships of World War II. After the war, a new church was built in Agana Heights in 1955, and additional congregations were established in Yigo and Hågat (Agat) where ministry continues today.

Agat Baptist Church is presently being served by missionaries Schuyler and Cathy Brantley.

General Baptist Ministries have three ministry areas in Honduras.  We are involved in local church development, health care ministry including a clinic and mobile clinic, and a children’s home called Faith Home.  

General Baptist Ministries has been serving vulnerable children in Honduras through Faith Home, a residential ministry located on a 50-acre campus near San Pedro Sula.

Established to provide a safe and loving environment for children who have experienced neglect, abuse, or abandonment, Faith Home offers both physical care and spiritual nurture. The children live with married Honduran Christian couples who serve as house parents, creating stable, family-style living environments. These caregivers—along with their own children—model Christ’s love through everyday life and provide a foundation for healing and growth.

Faith Home offers support with a full-time educational specialist, a computer lab, a qualified special education teacher, a medical doctor (who also works with the clinic and mobile clinic) and a psychologist. 

Faith Home works in partnership with the local court system to care for children in need and is committed to sharing the love of Christ through safety, education, and daily discipleship.

General Baptist Ministries has been at work in Jamaica since 1958, when Reverend Roger J. Cazziol initiated outreach efforts while serving as a missionary in West Africa.

Drawn to General Baptist theology during seminary, Cazziol saw potential for ministry in rural Jamaica and took a position as Headmaster at a private boys’ school to begin missionary evangelism. In 1961, he registered the Jamaica Association of General Baptists, and by 1966, a formal network of churches had been established with official Articles of Association.

Today, the Jamaica Association of General Baptists includes nine churches with over 500 members, supported by vibrant ministries such as the Women’s Missionary Society, youth and men’s programs, and an active camping ministry.

General Baptist Ministries has been serving in Mexico for several years, partnering with local churches to share the Gospel and develop Christian leaders. Ministry efforts include two churches in Juarez and one in Chihuahua.

General Baptist Ministries has a long-standing presence in the Philippines, with a strong emphasis on leadership development and theological training.

In Davao City, the General Baptist Bible College (GBBC) exists to train and equip generations for Christian service. Founded in 1965, GBBC has prepared pastors, Christian educators, musicians, and ministry leaders who now serve across the Philippines and beyond—including in business and government roles. Classroom instruction by well-trained faculty is complemented by hands-on ministry practicum. The student body is vibrant, ministry-minded, and deeply compassionate toward the people they serve.

In the tribal regions of Mindanao, the Matigsalug Bible Institute (MBI) has been operating since 1978. Established by General Baptists to train pastors and Christian workers for rural and tribal ministry, MBI offers accessible theological training—especially for students who have not completed high school. Life and learning happen in community, as students, staff, and their families live on campus. In addition to preaching and ministry, students are trained in practical skills such as farming and facility maintenance to help sustain the ministry.

General Baptist Ministries has maintained a vibrant presence in Saipan since the founding of Saipan Community Church shortly after World War II.

Planted by Reverend Ed Stevens, the ministry has grown into a thriving church and school located along the beach road in the Susupe area. Saipan Community School, serving students from kindergarten through eighth grade, operates as a ministry of the church.

Both the church and school reflect the rich diversity of the island, with members and students from the U.S., Japan, China, Korea, Palau, Chuuk, the Philippines, and beyond. The ministry is supported by a full-time missionary/pastor and a dedicated team of school personnel committed to serving the multi-cultural community of Saipan.
