Our History and Beliefs
Balsam Baptist Church has been an integral part of the Balsam community for over a century, steadfastly spreading the teachings of Jesus Christ. Rooted in our commitment to promoting worship of the one true God, we fervently engage in the study of the Bible and the proclamation of the Gospel. At Balsam Baptist Church, we hold steadfast to our belief in the Bible as the inspired and infallible word of God.
Central to our faith is the conviction that salvation is freely available to all who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, recognizing His sacrificial death on the cross for the redemption of humanity. Moreover, we celebrate the ordinances of the Lord’s Supper and baptism by immersion as acts of obedience to our Lord. Looking ahead with hope, we anticipate the return of Christ and embrace the responsibility and privilege of spreading His love, seeking to make disciples of all nations.
Centered around our missionary focus, Balsam Baptist Church is deeply committed to extending compassion and support to our local community while simultaneously striving to make a global impact. Through various outreach programs, missions trips, and community initiatives, we actively seek to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those around us. From providing food and shelter to the homeless to offering counseling and support services to struggling families, we endeavor to embody the love and compassion of Christ in tangible ways. Additionally, our dedication to global missions enables us to partner with organizations and ministries around the world, spreading the message of hope and redemption to the farthest corners of the earth.
