The new branding for First Baptist Raytown was launched recently and included a new logo, mission and values. The beautiful logo features 3 swooshes that swirl around the center cross and symbolize the 3 core strategies of our mission:
- Engage our community with the love and message of Jesus Christ.
The library is open to the public and does not require church membership for usage of our materials including check-out priveleges, which allows us to engage people from all over the Kansas City metro area.
- Equip our congregation with biblical principles to reach their maximum potential.
The library collection is heavily centered on discipleship training with high-quality materials to help believers grow in their walk with Jesus Christ.
- Empower our core leaders for ministry in the church and mission in the world.
The library collection features materials for Sunday School teachers, ministry leaders, and missions volunteers to help them prepare for lessons, leadership, and living out the love of Christ in our world.
The library ministry is an integral part of all 3 of these areas.
Pastor Brandon: “It’s my vision to see First Baptist Raytown become an “equipping epicenter.” May what God does in our hearts here on our campus send “shockwaves” into every sector of influence in our city. Our vision for the future must not only make disciples of Jesus but also equip our disciples to in turn make more disciples. ”
We’re excited to be a part of an “equipping epicenter”!
