Our Beliefs

A Baptist is a member of a Baptist church. Baptist churches are part of a Christian Evangelical Protestant denomination. Baptists emphasize a believers's baptism by full immersion, which is performed after a profession of faith in Jesus as Lord and Saviour.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
