Pray. Give. GO! Belize Mission 2025
First Baptist Church has been prayerfully and financially supporting local, national and international missions for many years, obeying Jesus' command in Matthew 28:18-20 to "Go and make disciples of all nations..." We are excited to return once more, partnering with Praying Pelicans Missions to serve the Full Gospel Church of God in Benque, Belize, June 7-14, 2025!
For the past few months, FBC has been developing a team of "Senders" (those who are committed to supporting and mobilizing the team from the local standpoint) and "Travelers" (those committed to traveling to Belize).
We invite YOU to be a part of what the Lord is doing and be a "sender" by supporting the Belize mission through your prayers, finances and talents/resources. Please pray for the requests below and if you would like to donate financially, you can click the button above. For more information, contact Lori Holst at holstbunch@gmail.com or (530) 859-0449. Stay tuned to this website for updates and prayer requests as the team prepares to GO.

Prayer Requests as the team departs!
The team would be in unity with each other and led by the Holy Spirit in all details; serve with humble, flexible, bold attitudes; have good health, physical protection; not be limited by language barriers.
The Lord would prepare the hearts of those we will serve and all the testimonies, messages, skits, songs, VBS, outreach, visitation, would clearly proclaim the truths of the Bible/Gospel and all who hear would deepen their knowledge of and faith in Jesus.
Team members would wisely/sensitively assist and make special connections with Pastor Saul and Guadalupe and the Full Gospel Church of God in Benque Belize, encouraging them to continue serving their community and making disciples in the name of Jesus.
The teens/younger members of the FBC team would enter in freely to all aspects of the ministry work/ trip, make lasting relationships with the church and be inspired to have a mission mindset all the days of their lives.
As team members return, they would boldly share and apply their experiences and leadership, that many would be encouraged to go and make disciples locally and globally.
