Ministries

Where Can Our Family Serve?

Jesus commanded his disciples that, as they go about their daily lives, to make disciples of all nations and to serve each other in love. At Berean Baptist Church (BBC) we hold a deep and abiding love for our God and for one another. We hold a fervent desire that all would come to know, love and serve Jesus Christ. The church gathering is not viewed as a place that can serve us but as a place in which we can serve others. Each week BBC expresses a love of community in service through an ever increasing number of ministries. Each serves in sharing the love of Christ and growing in a true knowledge of Him. Church family members are involved in a variety of practical ministries. What follows is a summary of opportunities and in no way represents an exhaustive list of service opportunities.

Family Bible Fellowship

BBC seeks to provide faithful Bible for every member of the family. Every Sunday morning at 9:00 am BBC holds a children’s Bible fellowship (Sunday School) class, in conjunction with a Men's and a Women’s Bible study. This special time gives each family member more opportunity for interaction and learning in a context and manner that may be better suited to their age and learning styles. Our friendly children’s teachers are screened and trained to make the best possible environment for our children.

Within the Family Bible Fellowship service there are teachers, helpers and attendance takers.

Worship Ministry

God-honoring, God-centered worship is something we strive for every day each week. Many of our church members are involved in our worship music ministry at BBC. Some play their instruments. Some are vocalists. Others are involved in the choir. Still others get involved through the reading of Scripture and giving testimonies. These volunteers are an important part of the ministry of BBC, each using their talents and gifts to glorify God and lead others into His presence.

Within the Worship Ministry service there are teachers, instrumentalist, vocalists (worship team and choir), Scripture readers, ushers (see below), media and technology support (see below) and attendance takers.

Ushers

The usher ministry at BBC fills a critical role. They are involved in directing attendees to their seats, ensuring the safety of the building during services, guiding traffic, helping visitors, answering questions, providing general direction, receiving the offering, and generally ensuring that the service can proceed problem-free. Ushers serve within the Worship Ministry as well as special service opportunities including weddings and funerals.
Within the Usher Ministry service there is a servant-hearted group of men whose ministry is integral to church life.

Media & Technology

Using media to spread the gospel is a privilege of BBC. In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes. All of our weekly messages are uploaded to our website in audio and video format. We also maintain an active Facebook account for additional church communication.
Within the Media & Technology Ministry are sound technicians, lighting technicians, audio and video technician’s, website designers, photographers, Facebook and social media editors, and online directory editors.

Bible Study

Tuesday at 10 am at our office (4001 134th ST. NE Marysville Building #B) where a number of the church family members gather for Bible study (Typically a book of the bible) and to pray for shared needs from among the church family. Prayer cannot be overestimated. Studying God’s word and Prayer is an immense privilege through Christ and moves the hand of God among His people. BBC is a family of believers dependent upon His word and prayer, and committed to God’s sovereignty. Throughout the week, via our prayer chain, volunteers pray for the pastor, fellow church members, any special requests shared, and missionary prayer needs.

Child Evangelism Fellowship Ministry

Good News Club is a Bible-centered, interdenominational, worldwide organization, composed of born-again believers whose purpose and mission are to evangelize boys and girls with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, disciple them in the Word of God, and establish them in a Bible believing church for Christian living.
We meet 2nd and 4th Tuesday's @Liberty Elementary Marysville Prt.#3 To get signed up! email: pastormattleebbc@gmail.com

Hospitality Ministry

Because of and in response to the amazing truth of the Gospel, the Hospitality Ministry desires to model that which we have been graciously shown—God has lovingly and graciously welcomed all people who believe into His Kingdom. The Hospitality Ministry exists and responds to God’s hospitality toward us by reflecting His character to anyone who comes through the doors of BBC.

We desire to make everyone feel welcome through a warm greeting at the door, assisting anyone who might need information or directions, providing opportunities for people to connect over a cup of coffee and a cookie or enjoy a common meal of fellowship each month. In these simple ways the Hospitality Ministry serves to encourage growth in the church’s love for God, His glory, and in the church’s love for one another.

Within the Hospitality Ministry there is wedding coordination, funeral/memorial service, greeters, kitchen staff, refreshment providers, and all those who share in the fellowship meal and provide a meal for those shut-in or convalescing from illness.

Care Ministry

Care ministry exists to provide love and support to people who are struggling with life’s challenges. We all need help at one point or another during difficult times. We would like to assist in any way that we can. If you would like to be added to our prayer list please click here. If you would like a visit from our care team please click here.
