Welcome to the Lake
Spring Lake Memorial Missionary Baptist Church
A Ministry of Exaltation-Education-Excellence-Evangelism
OUR VISION
It is our mission to develop a fellowship of believers that will help one another develop a closer relationship with Christ, themselves, their families, the church and the community.
EXALTATION
The most crucial activity we have at Spring Lake Memorial is the time we spend in worship. Without question, worship is central to our life as a body of believers. Our main focus is on the Lord when we gather, not on ourselves. We join together to exalt Him, by lifting our voices in praise to the one who gave us life in all its fullness.
​
Worship services at Spring Lake Memorial are not dry and dull exercises! They’re potent, meaningful and enlivened with straightforward messages from God’s matchless word. We are eternally accountable to God in whom we place our trust. In reality, when we meet to worship, He is the audience and we are participants in giving Him praise.
EDUCATION
We believe there is no greater stewardship entrusted to us a church than the responsibility of teaching God’s external word. In our educational ministries at Spring Lake Memorial, the Bible is more than a storybook or a textbook-it is a life book. Whether instructing youth or young adults, our Christian education uses methods that will convey the Bible in a relevant and understandable style. Our learning opportunities extend well beyond the normal Sunday school hour. By learning from Biblical perspectives, hopefully everyone will be able to positively impact the lives of others.
Our “life changing” Christian educational opportunities will give you the tools to live a more victorious life everyday.
Most importantly, we are committed to expounding the word of life in such a way that transforms students into teachers, disciples into disciplers and seekers into guides.
EXCELLENCE
We are a church that strives for perfection and excellence. Members of our congregation consistently reach out to share their faith with those who are in need physically, emotionally, and spiritually to demonstrate our commitment to excellence is shown in the personal commitment to building solid relationships with one another.
​
Spring Lake Memorial is indeed a place where you find open doors, open hearts, and an open determination to true excellence in ministry. We welcome all visitors to our services and programs and to examine our wide range of ministries.
EVANGELISM
As Jesus met with His disciples for forty days following His resurrection, He instructed them concerning the future kingdom- a kingdom that they would continue to populate with new citizens. Most remarkably, He told them in Acts 1:8 that to accomplish this ongoing task, He would give them the indwelling power of His spirit so they would not have to rely on their own limited strength.
​
It is the reliance on the power of God that Spring Lake Memorial presses ahead in its own roles as salt and light in our community and culture, seeking to clearly speak the good news of the gospel at every appropriate opportunity and in the same the New Testament records the advance of the gospel to a variety of cultural and social situations. We at Spring Lake Memorial, look for opportunities in our distinctively modern setting, through community outreach. Thus we see our mission as collectively and individually doing all we can to lead others to Christ.
FIND YOUR FAITH
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
