When it comes to missions, the Arlington Baptist Church family believes in both giving to and participating in missions, both locally, nationally, and internationally.  For example...  

A plan is being developed to become an Acts 1:8 church.  The Acts 1:8 Challenge is an opportunity for Southern Baptist churches to declare their commitment to a comprehensive missions strategy in their community (Jerusalem), state (Judea), continent (Samaria) and world (ends of the earth). In doing so, a church invites its denominational Acts 1:8 partners – their association, state convention, the North American Mission Board, and the International Mission Board – to assist them.
