Historical Sketch
The Missouri Baptist General Association was founded in 1834 to bring together the Baptist congregations in the state. Prior to its formation, there were only district associations in Missouri, each pursuing its own mission. By the year of its centennial, the state association guided efforts to found four Baptist colleges, an orphans’ home, and a hospital.
