Who We Are

We are an Association of Southern Baptist churches committed to serving Jesus Christ and His Kingdom’s work.  As Baptists, we join with likeminded Christians in spreading the gospel around the world.  Following Christ’s example, we desire to reach out to people of all ages and backgrounds.  That’s why, in our churches, you’ll discover ministries geared to a variety of life stages and personal needs.  Our churches provide a place for everyone to worship God, study the Scriptures, fellowship with one another, and minister to others through numerous opportunities.  We want you to be a part of the blessings of God in the life of our Association.  We’ll bring you updates periodically on just what’s happening at New River Baptist Association and our churches.
