From time to time local churches find themselves in need of a special speaker. We want to assist those congregations by providing access to speakers who may be able to minister to them.

​The Minnesota Baptist Association provides a platform for churches who are in agreement with our doctrinal statement to fellowship in partnership, propagation, and publication for the purpose of greater ministry effectiveness for the glory of God in the state of Minnesota.

We partner together for edifying meetings, encouraging fellowships, offering help in pastoral transitions, and other areas of cooperation that will strengthen the churches.
We propagate by planting new congregations, providing help to struggling congregations, and recruiting congregations who are not a part of our association but would agree with our doctrinal statement.
We publicize our positions and activities to the churches for purposes of information, edification, accountability, and promotion.
