About United Baptist Church Church
Our Passion is pretty simple: love God, love neighbor! We want to be a church where we seek together, as a family, to love God with all our hearts. So, we try to paint a good and accurate picture of who God is in the person of Jesus. We affirm that Jesus is the only way to have a relationship with the God of the Universe... and that Jesus loves us (so much so that he died for us!). It is God's love for us that compels us to love our neighbors. we seek to be good neighbors as a church: serving, loving, and ministering to our community. We do this because the love of God compels us!
