Plan Your Visit

Looking for Something Real?

Ever walked into a church and left wondering if you'd actually heard the Bible preached?

You're not alone. Many believers are searching for a place where God's Word takes center stage — where the goal is transformation, not entertainment. At Sovereign Grace Baptist Church, we believe the Scriptures are sufficient for all of life and godliness.

Scripture-Centered

We're the kind of church where Scripture shapes everything — our music, our ministries, and our relationships. Every sermon, every song, every ministry flows from God's Word.

What to Expect When You Visit

When you visit, you'll find a friendly welcome, biblical worship, and preaching that opens God's Word — verse by verse. No flashing lights or stage acts. Just the joy of worshiping Christ together and learning His truth.

Service Times

Sunday School at 9:30 AM
Morning Worship at 10:30 AM
Evening Service at 6:00 PM

Friendly Welcome

Greeters will meet you at the door and help you find your way. Come as you are — all are welcome.

Children's Ministry

Safe, loving care for infants and toddlers. Age-appropriate Bible teaching for children during the service.

What to Wear

Dress comfortably. You'll find families in everything from suits to jeans. What matters is that you're here.

"Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching."

— 2 Timothy 4:2 (ESV)

Faithful Expository Preaching

Every sermon at Sovereign Grace Baptist Church is centered on Scripture — explained, not abbreviated. We preach through books of the Bible, verse by verse, so you can understand God's Word in its context and depth.
