Over 17 years ago, First Baptist Church of Monett purchased land just south of Monett Missouri. Based on Jeremiah 31:21 and due to its location right near the highway they called the property "Waymark". As the capital campaign began, it was called, “Windows at Waymark”. On the day the ground was broken the project was called, “Walls at Waymark”. Finally, in 2011 there was a celebration honoring what God had done throughout the build and this worship service was called, “Worship on Waymark”. In April of 2021, through obedience to God's will, we adopted the identity of Waymark Church. Through this change of identity we have a new desire to reach out into our community and to share Jesus Christ with a world in need of a Savior.

Jeremiah 31:21 says, “Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: set thine heart toward the highway, even the way which thou wentest: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities.”
Merriam-Webster defines Waymark as this: an object serving as a guide to someone traveling. What this means is that in everything we do, we strive to point people to Jesus and be the Waymark in our community.
