Mary Park

Our missions leader

Email Mary Park

Mary Park has been an unwavering pillar of service at First Baptist Church Blanco since she and her husband, David, moved to the area in 2007. The Parks joined our church family soon after arriving, and David served faithfully as interim pastor from 2013 to 2014. Throughout their time here, Mary has demonstrated the spirit of Philippians 2:4, “Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others,” in every aspect of her life.

As Head of Missions, Mary’s leadership extends across multiple ministries. She serves on the church council, leads our new member classes, and organizes our community English classes, which have become a vital part of our outreach, helping Spanish speakers gain the language skills they need to thrive. Her leadership has shaped these programs into something truly special, impacting lives and connecting people in meaningful ways.

1 Peter 4:10
As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another

Mary’s dedication to others is a reflection of Christ’s love—her service impacts lives in profound ways, and her leadership inspires us all to serve with compassion and purpose. We are blessed beyond measure by her unwavering commitment to the work of God’s kingdom.

Lottie Moon Christmas Offering

Inspired by the legacy of Southern Baptist missionary Lottie Moon, who served in China from 1873 to 1912, this offering addresses the world’s greatest problem—lostness. Lottie’s heartfelt letters to American churches challenged them to increase prayer and financial support for missionaries. Today, this offering continues her mission by sending and sustaining those who bring the Gospel to unreached areas. This year, the offering will be held from December 1-8, giving us the opportunity to join in her legacy of spreading the Gospel.
