Who we are
Vision for Beaver Dam Baptist Church
Beaver Dam Baptist Church
Mission Statement
At Beaver Dam Baptist Church God is calling us to create a culture of discipleship for the glory of God, the good of our community and beyond. We want to see lives transformed, and disciples built by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This culture is bult on four priorities we hold as a church. We want our worship meetings to be presence focused. As we preach God’s Word, sing God’s Word, and pray God’s word His presence is our hearts desire. Our Preaching, teaching, and discipleship groups are Text-driven (this means the church is driven by what the Word of God says over personal preferences). As a result, we want to see God move this discipleship culture forward in Biblical evangelism as we go into our communities and serve our neighbors.
