The Catawba River Baptist Association in Morganton, NC is searching for its next
Director of Missions. The Director of Missions will be a full-time man who has been
called by the Lord to lead and to minister alongside the churches of the association.

cooperatively as partners than any church could do alone.

Carolina Baptist Convention. The Catawba River Baptist Association is located in
beautiful western North Carolina. We are comprised of 67 churches located in Burke
