Missionary Links & Mission Opportunities
The Ohio River Baptist Association encourages members to seek to participate with mission points sponsored by the association, local churches, the Kentucky Baptist Convention, the North American Mission Board, and the International Mission Board. To help foster mission experiences the association offers scholarships to assist with the costs of mission involvement.

Kentucky IMB personnel websites.
We have removed the IMB Missionary websites because we became aware of security issues with at least one site. We encourages you to pray for our Missionaries all around the planet, who are faithfully serving the Lord. Some in extremely dangerous locations.
