East Caribbean Baptist Mission

On September 5, 2004, the ECBM dedicated a new Secondary school facility on property purchased immediately south of the Central Baptist Church. The facility houses classrooms, rest rooms, science laboratory, home economic center, and media ministry studio. On April 15, 2007, a newly constructed church building was dedicated for the Covenant Baptist Church. By the providence of God, the ECBM was able to purchased property in the Longfords Estate/Mount Pleasant community on Friars Hill road for the construction of this worship permanent facility for the Covenant Baptist Church. On August 31, 2008, the ECBM dedicated a new Elementary school facility on the property immediately to the west of the Central Baptist Church. The facility houses four new classrooms, each with it own rest room facilities. Renovations were also done to some of the old elementary classrooms. This move enabled the Elementary Division of the Baptist Academy to completely move out of the Central Baptist Church building, opening up more space for church auxiliaries." In 2009, the facilities of the Tyrells Baptist Church were partially torn down of an extensive renovation project. A balcony for the worship sanctuary and second floor were created. New quarters for the Elders, a totally redesigned sanctuary with a baptistery, new classrooms, restrooms, sound booth and a fellowship hall were built. Since 2010, , the ECBM committed itself to supporting the Baptist Haitian Mission (BHM) after the catastrophic earthquake. For years before this, money was occasionally sent in small amounts. Now, each year, missions-support money is sent to assist the work of the BHM, an amount saved from the weekly offerings as well as a Christmas gift emphasis. The ECBM also makes monthly as well as special contributions to the Berean Bible Church & Berean Christian Academy in Dominica for staff and other support. On November 1st, 2011, , the Governor General of Antigua & Barbuda announced the appointment of Dr Hensworth Jonas as a Grand Cross in the Most Precious Order of Princely Heritage (GCH), a national honour for his service to the nation in the field of education. In August 2012, , the ECBM Circuit of Baptist Churches elected Pastor Joshua Michael Jonas, the son of the Presiding Elder, as Staff Associate Elder. He was ordained the following month and serves as a full time pastor in the ministry.
