Missions Mobilization
SEND
Out of the 7.6 billion people in our world today, 3.2 billion have little to no access to the Gospel. 81% of the world's Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus do not personally know a Christ-follower. What will it take for every life to be saturated and transformed by the Gospel? Every church, every size, everywhere embracing and employing an Acts 1:8 mission strategy - sending workers and making disciples in our state, our country and around the world.
Missions College
Missions College is a one-day equipping conference for pastors, missions pastors, mission team leaders, mission volunteers, and those considering a call to missions. Tracks will be led by veteran IMB East Asia missionaries, along with missions pastors from SC. Their vast mission field experience and knowledge will provide quality training for mission leaders and participants who want to share the gospel across the globe.

Strategic Partnerships
Strategic Partnerships are ongoing relationships developed with field personnel and national partners for unceasing prayer, strategic projects, leadership training and mutual encouragement to spread the gospel around the world.
We believe that strategic partnerships are the best way for churches to be on mission and we want to assist every church in connecting with mission partners. The SCBC is establishing strategic partnerships with the IMB, NAMB and Baptist Conventions to connect churches with strategic partners.
