Beech River Baptist
Association is an organization of independent and
autonomous Southern Baptist Congregations who voluntarily
cooperate in order to advance the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus
Christ. The association is headquartered in 43 separate and
mission-minded Baptist Churches in four counties of West
Tennessee. Our leaders from left to right are Clerk Frances
Thrower, Treasurer Don Martin, Vice-Moderator Chris Young, and
Moderator, Dale Gravatt.
What we are
truly all about is contained in our motto:
Partnering With One Another To Fulfill The Great
Commission
To help advance the Kingdom of God, we
voluntarily come together in order to more effectively fulfill
the tasks of the church.

It is not the responsibility of the association
to do the work the Lord called the church to do, but rather to
assist the churches in doing their God-given ministry. This is
accomplished through training church leaders, resourcing as
practical, and by helping the churches coordinate activities.
The association has no ecclesiastical authority or power over
any congregation or any staff member.

Dr. G. M. "Mike" Thrower began serving
as Director of Missions for Beech River Baptist Association in
March, 2002. Previously he served as pastor for three churches,
the last for 20 1/2 years. Mike has a love for the work of the
association. He is honored to be the Pastors' Pastor. His wife
Frances serves with him as the Ministry Assistant.
Our Resource Center is located at 771 E Church
Street in Lexington. Our Association is located wherever the
members of our churches are at work in the world.
