Give All Year
The Domestic Missions offering at BABC is a year-long offering with a goal of $100,000 to support initiatives in and around our campuses and in eight other organizations that share our vision of A Place to Belong... A Place to Become!
Where Does the Money Go?
Gifts to Domestic Missions go to help initiatives in RVA and beyond! When you give, you participate not only in the work of BABC but that of eight extraordinary partners working to change the world around us.
Focus on Domestic Missions in March
Though Bon Air Baptist Church (BABC) gives to and supports Domestic Missions throughout the year, we take time each March to emphasize and focus on Domestic and Local Missions by providing information and resources as well as connections to partners doing God's work in the community.
