MISSIONARY CAR SERVICE
The Macedonia Call and The Righteous Rides seeks to support the mission of the gospel by supplying missionaries with vehicles while they return to the US and their home churches during their respites. Offering free vehicle usage of fully serviced vehicles during their extended stays, this ministry allows for missionaries to easily travel around to sister churches and share what God has been doing on the mission field. This ministry needs help with driving the vehicles to and from locations and assisting with pickup and drop offs.

ONEWAY
Oneway is a ministry where many individuals encounter Jesus and experience freedom from strongholds in their lives. Held weekly on Friday nights at FBC Jonesboro, Oneway is open to all members of the community seeking freedom from any form of stronghold or bondage in their lives. Through Oneway at FBCJ, we have been able to help establish more Oneway programs at other churches across the country, seeking to further glorify God by pointing those in need to Him. We need volunteers who have a heart for those struggling with strongholds in the areas of child care, worship, soundboard and encouragement. Come and be a part of what God is doing!

PREGNANCY CARE CENTER
The Pregnancy Care Center is a locally organized and funded non-profit ministry that provides compassionate support to women and men faced with difficult pregnancy decisions. We are committed to meeting the needs of the whole person. Each individual who seeks our help has physical, emotional and spiritual need. We minister to them with sensitivity. The good news of salvation is shared as the Lord gives volunteers the opportunity through their relationship with women and families who call or come in for help. Please reach out to us to be a part of what God is doing and hear about the many ways you can get involved!
