About Us
Our Growth Process
At Westhaven Baptist Church, we believe in a growth process that draws us closer to Jesus and equips us to serve others. Our mission is to:
1. Discover the Love of Jesus “We love because He first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19 Join us for Sunday services and experience the transforming love of Jesus. Through worship, teaching, and community, we aim to help you discover the fullness of His love and grace.
2. Partner with Jesus’ People “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:11 We partner with Jesus' people through life groups that meet during the week and a midweek Bible study and dinner on Wednesday nights. Together, we build lasting relationships, grow in faith, and support one another on our journey.
3. Serve Others with the Love of Jesus “Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” — Matthew 5:16 Use your gifts, time, and talents to impact our community and beyond. Through outreach and service opportunities, we strive to live out Jesus’ love in tangible ways.
Each step builds on the one before it and deepens your commitment to following Jesus. As you move through these steps, you will grow in your walk with Him and find purpose in serving His people and the world around you.
