Welcome to Greater Union Missionary Baptist Church

Church Theme

A healthy church is one that follows God's plan."But seek you first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all things will be added unto thee." Matthew 6:33

Consequently, we pray that by being attentive to God: pray, planning and smarter work, we will recharge the vision for Greater Union Missionary Baptist Church.

The Church Vision

In addressing the despairing people of Israel who have seen their nation ravaged and pillaged, their holy Temple destroyed, Ezekiel prophesied, "These bones can live." God's spirit moved across the bones and the scattered pieces were joined together. The breath of the living God brought them the dynamic energy the needed for moving on to do the work for which they were called. We must never forget, God is in the Resurrection business? For this reason, we at Greater Union Missionary Baptist Church chart a new course in promoting God's Kingdom.
