From Dr. Eric Cook
Welcome to the Union Baptist Association website. We hope you will take a few minutes to explore God’s Kingdom work through the churches of the Association. The MISSION of the UBA is to support our cooperating churches in their divinely appointed task of fulfilling the Great Commission. Our mission strategy to do this is accomplished in four ways through:
1) Promoting Missions, 2) Developing Leadership, 3) Nurturing Partnerships, and 4) Strengthening Churches.
“Assisting Churches in Advancing the Gospel,” is our maxim. Because of the various functions of the Association the accomplishing of this task takes on many forms. The demonstration of this truth is seen in our partnership efforts of church planting, church revitalization, mission endeavors, various church administrative functions, conflict resolution, leadership development, evangelism training, deepening discipleship, and a host of other ministry areas.

2021 VBS Theme
Pack your bags and grab your gear, VBS 2021 is headed to present-day Israel where an epic adventure of discovery awaits. Discover long-hidden treasures, amazing finds, and exciting evidence that proves biblical events were not just stories. They really happened.
At Destination Dig, kids will unearth more than
just dirt. They’ll discover real-life archaeological finds that have helped to
uncover the truth about Jesus. Stories from the Bible will leap off the pages
as kids explore where Jesus walked and examine artifacts that bring the world
of the Bible to life. As junior archaeologists, kids will study tangible pieces
of the past to learn the truth about who Jesus is and why He came. Along the
way they’ll discover the truth of Jeremiah 29:13 that God reveals Himself to us
when we seek and search for Him with all our hearts.
