Taking a Stand Against Abuse
We desire to help churches take a stand against any kind of abuse, from mental abuse to child sexual abuse. We are joining together with the other Southern Baptist state conventions to offer training and resources to prevent abuse and minister to abuse victims.
Cooperative Program
Since its establishment 30 years ago, the Dakota Baptist Convention has been committed to fulfilling the Great Commission.
One of the ways we do that is through a collaborative initiative called the Cooperative Program. The Cooperative Program works by pooling the tithes and incomes of people across the nation to help support the work of God’s Kingdom.
The Cooperative Program begins with you giving back to your local church and being a faithful steward of the resources God has given you (Lev. 27:30, Mal. 3:10). From there, your church gives to the Dakota Baptist Convention.
The Dakota Baptist Convention supports ministries here in the Dakotas such as the Disaster Relief Program, aiding the displaced families from the Minot Floods in North Dakota. The funds have also been used on a global scale, bringing the Gospel to unreached people in Africa.
The money also goes to starting churches in the Black Hills around university campuses to train and equip future leaders and pastors around the Dakotas.
Finally, the Dakota Baptist Convention sends a percentage of our annual budget to the Southern Baptist Convention, as the convention supports impacting ministries and over 10,000 missionaries around the world.
Ultimately, by participating in the Cooperative Program, you can help fulfill the Great Commission. By graciously giving, you allow the Gospel to be spread right here in the Dakotas as well as across the globe.
If you are a DBC church in need of a blank remittance form or would like training on how to fill out the remittance form, please click here.
Supply Preachers
Looking for pulpit supply? Need someone who has been vetted and can be trusted to truthfully and honestly preach the Word of God while upholding the tenets of the Baptist Faith & Message? Perhaps you are in the Dakotas and would like to be a supply preacher. Either way, we have you covered!
We have a list of supply preachers who have been vetted by their pastors. We also have a sign-up form if you would like to be considered (and vetted!) for pulpit supply.
Bring a Mission Team to Your Church
The Dakota Baptist Convention hears from groups all around the United States who would like to help churches and ministries in the Dakotas over the summer. Opportunities that you might want to consider include: block parties, neighborhood surveys, church repairs, VBS or backyard clubs, youth retreat, or neighborhood clean-up. The opportunities are limited only by your imagination.
Revitalization
Doing the essential spiritual work that prompts a movement of God which propels the church into a state of health and wholeness that leads to growth and reproduction.
