Our Mission
Mission Statement
The divine mission of the Mount Sinai Missionary Baptist Church is to be a positive and effective witness, corporately and individually, for our Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 1:8). We are called to win lost souls unto the Lord through preaching the gospel, and to build up and to mature believing souls through preaching, teaching, prayer and fellowship (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 9:31; Romans 1:16; Ephesians 4:11-16).
In 1899, five families regularly gathered for prayer and worship at the home of Mrs. Carrie Walton, located at the corner of Chicon and Manor Road, and the home of Mr. and Mrs. Denmon. These same families called upon the Lord for direction to organize a church for the East Austin community.
