Impacting lostness - locally, globally, and everywhere in between.
Christ followers know to be obedient to His commands/to "make disciples" as we go. Many ministry opportunities come to TRBA - some require partnerships that allow churches to build relationships and have greater impact on the people. Learn More...

TRBA partners with member churches, non-TRBA churches, and the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina to help churches meet need in their communities. This partnership enables participating churches/ministries "stretch their benevolence dollars." Over the next 12-18 months we will offer training and build up this ministry. There are 14 different ways we can already assist you in ministries that involve food. I can imagine we can help if your church feels led to offer another.
