Belong & Grow with us.
We long for community, but who has the time? Busy schedules keep us isolated, distracted, and unavailable to serve the people God puts into our lives. Sometimes it feels like we’re stunting our own growth. Does it have to be this hard?
We allow Jesus to transform our perspective, so we can serve others from changed hearts, and invite people to discover the hope and joy that Jesus gives us.
Church can be so much more than just attending; it’s a family. It’s serving instead of being served. It’s following Jesus instead of doing our own thing.
Here’s how we get there…

Come early & stay late to socialize on Sundays.
Attend our First Name Sundays on first Sunday of each month

Pastor Rick spent three weeks unfolding our mission and vision and what that means for our church.

Committing at this next level increases our sense of belonging. We grow as individuals, but we also grow together as community.
Belong & Grow initiatives focus on 3 key activities:
Participate
Increase your involvement during this next season because when you’re engaged weekly, you experience personal growth and our sense of community grows when we worship together.
Serve
We learn to welcome and love others by serving & volunteering. It’s the selfless path to building community and to growing. Find out more about volunteering at Bay Pres.
Follow
Being a disciple means guiding others to find & follow Jesus. Our upcoming discipleship pathway, Follow, will make this journey practical and attainable in your daily life.
Our vision is to be a church obsessed with knowing Jesus, loving people, sharing the reason for our hope.
We’ll get there together.
We get it.
It’s hard to feel connected in a way that feels like you belong, which makes it hard to grow, especially with the abundance of distraction.
We've helped people clarify and deepen their faith while finding real community for more than 100 years. Belong & Grow is just the next chapter of our story.
