Englewood Baptist Church
Becoming a Vibrant, Missional Community of Faith.
Becoming - We are a people on a journey. We haven't arrived yet, but this is who we are striving to be - who we hope to become.
Vibrant - We have purpose and energy about who we are and what we do. We realize that God has given us everything we need to do what God is calling us to do.
Missional - We do not exist as a church for ourselves. We exist to be part of God's work in the world. We focus on serving and giving ourselves away. We work to see God's dream for the world come true.
Community - We know one another and care for one another. We rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.
Faith - We strive to be formed spiritually. We want to know God and become who God has created us to be. Everything we do is rooted in our connection with Christ.
We are an open and caring community of God's servants
seeking to grow spiritually and empower one another
through creative and meaningful worship,
Christian nurture and faith formation
in order to manifest and share
our faith constructively
wherever we may be,
under God's
grace.
Everyone Can Minister
We are devoted to the Biblical principle that every member is a minister.
Therefore we offer meaningful opportunities for Christian formation aimed at
identifying one's unique God-given gifts, and using them to follow Christ's
model of helping others and being a caretaker of God's creation.
Member-Led Organization & Ministries
Our members are involved in leadership at all levels of our church life.
Through our committee teams, deacon-care teams, worship planning teams,
ad hoc teams and our church cabinet-women, men and youth participate
actively and equally alongside our professional leaders in planning and
carrying out the ministries of Englewood.
Creative Worship Experiences
Worship at Englewood is a bit like the weather-it changes from week-to-
week and season-to-season. In fact we like to celebrate the Church liturgical
seasons that have been handed down across the centuries. Careful planning
combined with creativity and serendipity form enriching worship
experiences that are sure to touch everyone's heart, uplift and enrich life.
