Missions
K1C Missions Conference
Weekend of October 11 & 12
We are excited to invite you to this year’s Kingdom First Conference, where our theme is taken from 1 Peter 2:9–10 — Proclaim His Excellence. This will be a powerful weekend of worship, teaching, testimony, and celebration as we reflect on how God has moved in and through Second Baptist for His glory. It’s a time to come together as a community, be refreshed in purpose, and be reminded of the calling we carry—to declare the greatness of the One who called us out of darkness into His marvelous light. Come ready to celebrate. Come ready to proclaim. Come ready to be changed.
