We welcome you to Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church! We invite you to enjoy our web page and to become a part of our Church family.

Our Vision Statement defines both who we are and what we are becoming! We seek to be a "loving and compassionate family of God". With open hands and heart we invite you to discover a "home" with our family.

Our commitment as a family is founded upon prayer. Jesus Christ said, "My house will be a house of prayer for all the nations." That's what Jesus Christ wanted for his church. Simply put, prayer is talking to God and listening to Him. Prayer is the pathway for intimacy with God. We desire intimacy with God.

Our commitment is fourfold. First, we seek to go out in the name of Christ and bring people to Christ. We believe that Jesus Christ can change your life. Second, we attempt to teach people to be like Christ. Through Sunday School, Discipleship Training, Missions Organizations, and the Preaching and Teaching ministry of this church we seek to teach the truth and witness of Holy Scripture. Third, we aim to reach out to persons in need. We believe in local, state, national and foreign missions -- in essence, we believe in "total missions". No need is too small; no need is too great! Fourth, we seek to enjoy God in worship. Through worship, we attempt to draw near to God, and to grow closer together as a family of God.

In the Bible, Jesus told a story about a banquet table. In that story, everyone is invited to the table of fellowship and feasting. At Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church, our major mission is to invite everyone to Christ. When people come to the banquet table, they will be treated to a feast prepared by the host, Jesus Christ. Every time we gather through small groups, or through our worship experiences, we seek to take part in the feast prepared by Jesus Christ.
