Disciples are made in community. It’s within relationships that we grow and are formed into devoted followers of Jesus. So we seek to share our lives together as a church and demonstrate the love of Jesus through our love for each other (John 13:35). We gather together to sing His praises, offer our prayers, hear His Word, and care for one another.
As a Christian Family of Disciple-Making Disciples it is our passion and privilege to spread the message of salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in JESUS CHRIST alone, to the glory of GOD alone! We strive to follow Jesus and orient our lives around Him together while encouraging others to do the same. This is what we are called, commanded, and enabled to do by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. While we may be involved in other good things in our community and world, we try by God’s grace to focus our time and energy on living out the Great Commission given to us by Jesus. Matthew 28:16-20; Luke 24:46-48; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. Established in 1837 Brookville Baptist is one of the oldest Churches in Jefferson County PA, but of course we simply join the long line of churches established by Christ Himself.
We seek to Bless Brookville by Loving our Neighbors. We have been blessed by God in order to be a blessing to others. And we serve side by side to see Jesus worshiped as the true King both here in Jefferson County Pennsylvania and to the ends of the earth. We cooperate with other Jefferson County PA churches to alleviate suffering through the Brookville Area Food Pantry and and the Brookville Helping Hands Ministry, but we are especially concerned about eternal suffering so we continually proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and partner with those taking this life-giving message to the unreached peoples of the world.
