Go therefore and make disciples of all nations
Matthew 28:19
Missions work is to reach out beyond our local congregation to the community, region, and world for the purpose of evangelism and training of disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our goal is to edify the body of Christ and expand the true worship of our Sovereign God to include exposure
of the congregation of Battle Ground Baptist Church to short-term mission opportunities and
increased awareness of long-term missions.

Join the mission
Serve the Kingdom
Each year, the BGBC Missions Ministry sends teams to encourage and support the long-term missionaries our church supports financially.
In February 2026 a team visited our missionaries in the Philippines, Andy & Cassandra Pleiss. The team assisted in delivering supplies via helicopter to remote areas and share the Gospel.
A team visited our missionaries Peter and Margre Hays in August 2025 participating with them along side Jason Klumpenhower in street evangelism. Upon returning home, the team put together a fundraiser to raise funds to purchase Jason and Monica Klumpenhower a reliable vehicle after having their fourth child.
Check back soon for details on the next missions trip.
