We are a community of believers who come together to experience God in a joyful way, whether we're at a service, a special event, or simply spending time with our small group. We teach biblical truth so that you can understand it, relate to it, and apply it today! Along the way, we sing, and laugh. We teach and pray. We roll up our sleeves and get involved. And sometimes, we just sit quietly in the presence of God.
It is not as easy in this present culture to be men of character, integrity and purity. It is a challenging battle and we need support and encouragement.
At Bay Park, men are encouraged to build relationships where they can support and encourage each other to become strong, godly men in the home, church and community.
God wants Christian men to come together. "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another" (Proverbs 27:17)
The men of Bay Park Baptist Church meet for breakfast, devotions, spiritual input and fellowship the first Saturday of each month from September to May. We also undertake service projects as a team from time to time.
The Men’s Ministry sponsors other special events (eg; dinner program with the ladies, Super Bowl Party, Family Skating & Golfing). Watch the calendar for details.
If you want to get to know and fellowship with other men of the congregation, as well as mature in your spiritual growth, this is your invitation to come out and join with other men in the church. We know you will enjoy the fellowship and the program.
Men of all ages are welcome. Sign up at the information desk the Sunday before the breakfast date if you plan to attend.
