When you arrive at Mounds Baptist
Church you will be greeted by one of our church members at our
Connection Center. They have been trained to have all the
information you will need to know about the church facilities, and
programs. When you are first checking out a church, it can be a
little intimidating. That is why we’ve put together some answers to
the most commonly asked questions.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I dress? We care
about you, and not so much what you’re wearing. You’ll see anything
from jeans to suits. We want to focus on Christ and not anything
that would detract from doing so. We are a caring congregation that
welcomes everyone. We want you to discover the joy that we share
when we come together to worship God in spirit and in truth.
What can I expect when I get
there? Our service length is usually an hour in length. When
there are special guest speakers or special events the service may
be just a few minutes longer. The service includes worship songs
with a variety of musical styles, prayer, scripture reading, and a
relevant message to today’s world. A drama skit or video clip may
also be included on any given Sunday.
Our worship services are easy to
follow. Everyone is asked to stand and sit at the same time, so
you’ll never find yourself standing when everyone else is sitting,
or sitting when everyone else is standing. All of the words to
every song are projected and easy to read. Scriptures are projected
as well, so you'll never feel lost or left out during any part of
the service. We also have Bibles here at the church that are
available for anyone to use
Don’t feel obligated to give.
We do not invite you here to ask you for money. However, those who
wish to worship God by the giving of tithes and offerings will find
an opportunity to do so during the beginning of each service …..but please
don’t feel obligated to give.
Do I have to be a member to
attend? No, you absolutely do not. Our doors are open to you
for any service. It is your choice to be apart of our church through
membership. We hope that you will want to become apart of our loving
church family. Should you choose to do that, there is a Discovery
Class that answers many questions about the church and what our
mission is today.
We have communion services the
first Sunday of each month. It is open to all those who have
accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. Jesus
died for our sins. His body was broken and He shed His blood for
us. We celebrate together as a time to reflect on our own lives and
remember what He has done for us by giving His own life. (I
Corinthians 11:23-26)
There is a nursery provided
at our services.
On Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings there is a nursery
for birth– 3 years. We also have an active children
program designed to help your children feel loved and confident
because they are God’s creation and loved by Him and very special
to us. Jr. Church takes place during the regular worship
hour. Prior to our Sunday morning church services, children and adults alike
share in classes where the Bible is studied in depth and materials
that relate to our everyday lives.
Our Adult Bible Classes and
Opportunities feature a variety of classes and events. It is easy
to get connected at Mounds Baptist. Our goal on Wednesday Night
Bible Study is not simply to learn from the scripture, but how to
study the Bible in our private devotions and apply it to our
personal lives.
