Our Ministries

Central to everything we do is our worship of Jesus Christ as Lord. Our Sunday service is held each week at 10:00a.m. As we observe the liturgical church year, we hold special services during Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter.

Our worship service begins at 10:00a.m. During the early part of our Gathering Hymns, children  are invited to attend Sunday School. Here they will have Bible stories, crafts, and worship time. Following the worship service, we have a time of fellowship in the vestry.

Christian Education is a life-long endeavor. We offer a Sunday School program and mid-week Bible study on Tuesday mornings. Our well-maintained and up to date Church Library is an important resource for learning and is located off of the church vestry, our large gathering space.

Because we all need the encouragement of fellowship with other Christians, our church is strengthened by a variety of groups available to parishioners. 

We believe that the Great Commission means the "Church exists for mission, as fire exists by burning"! Therefore, we are committed to making a meaningful difference locally and globally. We share in our American Baptist witness around the world as throughout the nation. Locally, we help stock and administer the local food pantry, provide Little Folk Nursery School, a monthly food distribution, and American Red Cross Blood Drives.

Parishioners are encouraged to realize the important role they have in the life and mission of our church. Laity and clergy, men and women, share in full partnership in the ministry entrusted to us by our Lord. We believe every Christian has been gifted by the Holy Spirit for the work of ministry in some manner.

Our church staff is here to be of service and is committed to being ministers of the grace of God. Our Pastor and our Deacons are ready to assist you.

We believe that while we may have strong preference for our Baptist traditions and theology, there is plenty of common ground upon which we stand united with Christians of other denominations. Unity does not demand uniformity nor does diversity mandate divisiveness.

We believe every Christian is a steward of that which God has blessed them with, including their income. The stewardship of our money is not merely an obligation to fill, ("it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy" 1 Cor.4:2), but an opportunity to express our gratitude for the gifts of God, most especially the "inexpressible gift" of Jesus Christ. The true spirit of giving is found in generosity and gladness. Therefore, the church supports its ministries through individual pledges, spiritual gifts, bequests, and special fund-raising projects.

A variety of Boards and Committees, comprised of members of the church, are actively engaged in coordinating and conducting our many and varied ministries. Having a democratic congregational policy, every member is entitled to a vote. Our church work  is led by our Boards composed of Mission Board, Deacon Board, Christian Education Board, and Trustee Board
