Our Mission
As ambassadors for Christ we reach and teach others with a message of hope centered on opportunities for a better life. We work to reveal the truth that sin destroys, but that through personal responsibility and repentance, our lives are changed by a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
We are working to help people see the potential and power for change and success made available through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit.
Our Objective
Our prayer is that we may help those we have the privilege of serving to learn to establish a healthy sense of self-worth and value. By lifting people through ministry we expect to help transform the voices of victims into advocates for achievement.
We are working to help people get off of the crutches of failure and away from a focus upon obstacles in order to see those obstacles as stepping stones to greater success. Through the ministry of Baptized Pentecostal Church we are helping people pursue avenues of personal responsibility and accountability so that we may all grow into the stature for which God created us.
