Every year in September, we transform the church into a fully functioning assembly line to assemble as many Bibles or New Testaments as we can, and this year is no exception. After 12 years of assembling the Word of God to be shipped around the world, the work is still just as vital and just as important.

We need you to register

If you plan to attend the conference, we need you to register so we can get accurate counts for childcare and food preparation for the meals. We anticipate a very large body of volunteers from HBF and local area churches, so it's important for us to get counts to be able to accommodate everyone. Be sure to register and read the full preview of the conference at the link below.

The Life Issues Walk took place Sept. 3, with a good crowd of HBF members and community turning out to walk and raise money for the Life Issues ministry. As it goes every year, the walk started at the Cass County Jail and traversed 4.4 miles to Heartland Baptist Fellowship. 

Check out the full recap and some photos from the event. 

Editor's Note: Recently, 4 men from HBF (Brian Hedges, Brady Barnes, Chris Coen, Jim Stovall) went to Boston, Mass., to serve on a mission trip to help Living Faith Boston. The recap below is from Pastor Hedges while he was on the scene in the great city of Boston.

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18

Last year, Pastor Mike Reneau sold all and moved his family to Boston Mass., to establish Living Faith Boston. In the midst of a pandemic, he launched with great fanfare from his sending church at Midtown Baptist Temple. I can still recall seeing (on Facebook) the well-wishers lined up for miles through his neighborhood as they drove away from their Independence neighborhood to strike out by faith to establish a Bible-believing local New Testament church in Boston. A year later, God has blessed in a mighty way! God has provided a great team around the Reneau’s and fruit from the field as the Lord adds souls one by one through the work of evangelism and multiplies this miraculous work through the supernatural growth process the Bible calls "discipleship."
