Missions Celebration and Annual Meeting

Join hundreds of WMUers from across the state for Kentucky WMU Annual Meeting and Mission Celebration, a challenging, two-day event designed to promote missions engagement and to celebrate what God is doing through missionaries in Kentucky and around the world. You will be encouraged and equipped to live on mission with Jesus through uplifting worship, powerful teaching, and practical workshop sessions on a variety of topics, including missions action, evangelism, and missions discipleship.

*This event is for ALL Kentucky Baptists who are passionate about missions (women, men, teens, college students, AMS, in-WMU, new to WMU, etc.).
