The Seventh Day Baptist Board of Christian Education, Inc., has merged its ministry into the official structure of the Seventh Day Baptist General Conference USA and Canada, Ltd. The material on this website will eventually reflect these changes.
Mission
The Seventh Day Baptist Board of Christian Education provides programs and materials to encourage and equip Seventh Day Baptist Churches to teach evangelism, nurture, discipleship, and stewardship.
General Conference Mission
The Seventh Day Baptist General Conference unites, encourages, and equips the local Seventh Day Baptist Churches in their endeavors to fulfill the Great Commission (Matthew 28:16-20)
Vision
We see Seventh Day Baptist churches building people who are rooted in Christ, walking by the Spirit, and giving thanks to God.
We see Seventh Day Baptists sinking roots deeper into Christ and His word, living lives that unmistakeably show God’s nature, and proclaiming God and His word both in private and in public.
We see Seventh Day Baptist churches and individuals communicating God’s Gospel, cultivating the Spirit’s fruit, cherishing Christ’s commands, and celebrating Christ as King.
We see SDBs becoming more and more convicted of sin and yielded to Christ, more and more compelled to speak God’s message clearly, more and more committed to show and tell others about God’s Sabbath, more and more confident that God is working through SDB churches, more and more capable of building others in their local SDB churches, and more and more competent and challenged to help plant new churches.
We see the Board of Christian Education helping churches build these people.
Purpose
Assist local churches as they:
- Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord
