Who We Are

...and where we're headed.

TEBA is a voluntary, missional association of churches. The association is defined primarily by vision rather than geography, as we have many churches located outside Johnston County. Formed in 1903, we have served our community for over 118 years! We are here to help our churches fulfill their commitment to the Great Commission.

Purpose

We work together to promote unity, fellowship, and growth among Baptist churches. We work to further the Christian spirit in cooperation among Baptist Associations, the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, and the Southern Baptist Convention. We share in partnership ministries with other organizations whose goals and purposes are in harmony with those of our Association.

Member Churches

We are composed of cooperating Baptist Churches. A cooperating church is one that supports the purpose of the Association and has been accepted as a member of the Association. Currently, we are made up of over 70 member churches, missions, and new church starts.

Future

Today’s church faces unprecedented challenges with rapid cultural change, extreme diversity, and transitioning communities. However, these challenges also bring new opportunities for churches to impact their communities. Effective churches are passionately pursuing innovative strategies to meet these new challenges.
