GCBA LOCAL Mission Partners
The Gulf Coast Baptist Association strives to minister to our churches by offering educational training in an assortment of categories, consulting with churches in order to strengthen administration decision-making, engaging in ministry activities alongside its churches, and creating ministry opportunities. Below are some of the ministries which we support and acknowledge as viable ministries.
Disaster Relief
The Coast knows disaster, and the GCBA works with the MS Baptist Disaster Relief Team to encourage, train, and mobilize relief teams as needed. If your church is in need of specialized training for disaster relief, please contact us.

John Lewis
Mile one Mission
Newfoundland
Northern Cross Community Church is a replant endeavor led by Pastor John Lewis in an effort to keep a Christ-centered, Bible preaching church in the Happy Valley-Goose Bay community. The church was originally planted in 2003, but after the founding pastor left in 2009 it had been in decline ever since. John has served nine times over the past two years as a visiting pastor in an effort to assess and plan for a formal relaunch of the community church. John is an assessed NAMB church planter, an affiliate with the Send Network Canada, and an employee of Mile One Mission (church planting ministry of Calvary Baptist Church in Mount Pearl, Newfoundland). John is originally from Biloxi, Mississippi, USA.
