“We envision all people in western Nebraska having the opportunity to have a life changing
relationship with Christ, and to fellowship with other believers.”
Vision Statement
Hello,
Welcome to the web site of Oregon Trail
Baptist Association (OTBA).
In case you’re visiting us for the first time I would like to introduce
us to you.
Our churches are self-governing. However,
we have learned that churches can do more in friendly cooperation than
working alone. So, Oregon
Trail Baptist Association is a family of churches that are on a Mission
with Christ in their community and the world.
Here are a few examples of how our
churches work together:
ü
Disaster Relief:
Our churches have a mobile feeding unit that is capable of preparing up
to 7,000 meals per day. We
have served in places like Memphis, TN (05); Pearl River, LA (05);
Harrison, NE (06); Greensburg, NE (07); and Kearney, NE (08).
ü
Children’s Camp:
Our churches host a Children’s Camp every July.
Our goal is to keep it affordable for everyone with a focus on
evangelism, discipleship, missions and worship.
Our desire is for God to use the Camp as a place where children
will come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, and for God to
call out future missionaries and pastors.
ü
Block Party Trailer:
Our churches are
working together to build a Block Party Trailer so that each church will
have another tool in their tool box to reach the un-churched families in
their community for Christ and His church, and to plant new churches.
ü
Minister’s Wives
Retreat:
Our churches host every
November a retreat for Wives of our Pastors, Missionaries and Chaplains.
We recognize that these ladies are often the silent hero’s in our
churches. Our desire is to
provide these ladies with a Friday night, and Saturday for a “get-away”
to recharge their batteries.
