The Georgia Baptist Convention is made up of autonomous, cooperating churches that partner together through the Cooperative Program and special mission offerings and mission efforts to share Jesus Christ across Georgia, throughout North America, and around the world. Our Convention of churches may be best described by our Mission Statement:
“The Georgia Baptist Convention is a voluntary association of churches growing in grace, strengthening one another in faith and working together in obedience to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission of Jesus Christ.”
Churches give through the Cooperative Program and the Mission Georgia Offering to support the missionaries and ministries of the Georgia Baptist Convention. In turn, Georgia state missionaries provide assistance, training, encouragement, and support for the ministries of Georgia Baptist churches and associations.

At the 2011 Convention annual meeting, Georgia Baptists adopted 5 Smooth Stones or initiatives to reduce lostness in Georgia: Spiritual Renewal, Kingdom Generosity, Church Revitalization, Church Planting, and Authentic Evangelism.

Through the Cooperative Program and affiliation with the Southern Baptist Convention, Georgia Baptist churches partner in missions across North America through the North American Mission Board and around the world through the International Mission Board and other ministries that extend the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
