Children
Whyte Ridge Baptist Church is committed to coming alongside families in creating a Christ-centred foundation for their children so that in God’s timing, each child will enter into a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Each Sunday a team of committed volunteers is ready to meet your children and provide a morning of Biblically based activities geared to meet the specific needs of each age group from nursery through to grade six.
WRBC values the safety and security of all children and volunteers involved in WRBC ministries and has a clearly defined Plan to Protect program in place. According to our policy, all volunteers are required to go through a screening process that involves the completion of a written application form, training, a personal interview, reference checks, Child Abuse Registry Check and a Criminal Record Check.

Regenerate (Ephesians 4:24 “Put on your new nature, created to be like God – truly righteous and holy”) is the Women’s Ministry at Whyte Ridge Baptist Church. We are committed to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and as the Holy Spirit empowers us, we seek to grow in our knowledge of God, Jesus Christ, His Word and develop our full potential under Him. At WRBC we are working to build and equip a community of believing women who will be connected in Jesus Christ, display His love to each other and our community, and recognize opportunities to serve others in a spirit of unity.
Bible Study
We encourage all women to join a Bible study to grow in grace, knowledge, and love of their Savior (2 Peter 3:18).
