Our Mission
Crab Orchard Baptist Church exists to know the one true God and make Him known with open arms, receptive hearts, and willing hands across the aisle, across the street, and across the world.
Know God and Make Him Known
We exist for God’s glory to worship Him and make Him known in the world as His disciples who make disciples. We seek to structure our lives together in a way that we learn and live the way of Jesus.
Matthew 28:18-20, John 17:3
Open Arms
Our heart is to build a culture of sharing our lives with one another. Feel free to ask someone over for dinner or lunch. We give ourselves to welcoming people from all backgrounds and walks of life.
1 Thessalonians 2:7-8
Receptive Hearts
The hearts of God’s people are transformed by the Word and the Spirit. If we want to grow we must allow the word to examine us and His Spirit empower us to grow.
1 Corinthians 2:4-5
Willing Hands
We intentionally love our neighbor with willing hands by meeting physical, spiritual, and emotional needs across the aisle, street, and globe.
John 13:14-17 Acts 1:8
If you will commit to showing up, pouring into other, and pursue the Spirit's guidance we know we can display the unity and love that God's world desperately needs to see and experience.
John 17:21-23
