In North America and around the world, more than 10,000 missionaries are supported by Southern Baptists, including those in Colorado. In addition to financial and prayer support, Colorado's Southern Baptists are personally involved in hands-on missions.

Interested in Church Planting?
Are you interested in church planting in Colorado?
One of our constant prayers is that the Lord of the Harvest would continually raise up Harvesters (Luke 10:2). We are available to help you learn more about your role in church planting in Colorado.
Our team of church planting missionaries works to identify places where new churches are needed, to work with churches who want to multiply themselves through church planting, and to identify God-call people to serve as church planters and on church planting teams.
We want to help you clarify that call and determine if we should partner together to plant a church. This outlines our church planting selection process.

Rising above repression
Soviet persecution couldn't stop Denver missionary's destiny
By Mickey Noah
SBC North American Mission Board
Denver-- Little Anatoliy Odnoralov often came home after school with a bloody nose, the result of just another day as a Christian at his school in the North Caucasus region of the old Soviet Union.
"Since early childhood, I knew the price for my convictions," he said.
Anatoliy was the third-born son o fan ordinary shoemaker. He and Anatoliy's mother were faithful believers in Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, they were believer living in a godless, atheistic nation dedicated to the persecution of Christians.
As the family grew to 13, Anatoliy's father faithfully drew them together and read stories from the Bible, urging his children to pray. With his meager cobbler's pay, he purchased a guitar and an accordion and taught himself and his children to play. He even formed a family band -- pretty easy to do with 13 children in the home.
