Missions

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations

Matthew 28:19 (ESV) 

At Pleasant Ridge, we desire to take seriously the words of Christ  when He said, "And you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth" (Acts1:8 ESV). We strive to share the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone no matter their race, creed, color, ethnic background, or social standing.  We are ALL sinners in need of God's amazing, saving grace through His Son Jesus Christ. We strive to do this by engaging both our community and the world through many different endeavors.

Local 
  • PRBC has a missions team that seeks to honor Christ by serving our church and our community by meeting needs and sharing the Gospel.  We do so by helping widows, packing backpacks of food for children to take home over the weekend that otherwise wouldn't have food to eat, building handicap ramps, helping a local camp for less fortunate children, and a myriad of other things.  
  • PRBC supports our local soup kitchen and food bank located at Burke United Christian Ministries.  There is also a clothes donation bin located in the entrance of our parking lot where gently used items can be donated to the clothes closet at BUCM.  
  • PRBC supports the Catawba River Baptist Association and all it's missions endeavors in Burke County. 
  • As a Southern Baptist Church, PRBC supports the NC Baptist State Convention and the Cooperative Program of the SBC which includes the North American Mission Board.  

International 
  • As a Souther Baptist Church who supports the Cooperative program, we also support the International Missions Board of the SBC as well as the Lottie Moon Christmas offering for international missions. 
  • PRBC has a sister church in Satu Mare, Romania whom we support. Our beloved Berci family serves Jesus faithfully there where they share the Gospel with those in Satu Mare as well as in Hirip. 
  • PRBC also has a long standing partnership with the Ebenezer Gospel Mission of India.
