THE MISSION

• The purpose of Grace Baptist Bus Ministry is to fulfill God’s command to be “witnesses in Jerusalem” (Acts 1:8). We demonstrate God’s love to children and their families by ministering to them and giving them a safe ride to church where they learn about their Savior. In turn, they learn how to worship God, serve God and lead their family to Christ.
