Here at Whyte Ridge Baptist Church we are growing to be an internally strong fellowship of Christians deeply rooted in God and intimately connected to one another. We believe those are two needs that all people have in common, a close relationship with God and significant relationships with other people who are like-minded.
We are also growing to be an externally focused church, showing the heart of God to our community and caring for people of other nations. We recognize that when Jesus walked the earth He showed us how to live, as one who chose to serve and not only be served. Our purpose is to honor God by making disciples at home and around the world who clearly demonstrate changed lives in their worship, fellowship and witness.
We are a people who recognize the stresses that come to us all at different stages of life, and we seek to minister to one another as we journey. Children and youth, young adults and singles, young married couples and families with children, middle-aged and seniors, students, immigrants, widows… every station in life has its challenges, and we want to point people to God at each stage.
We recognize the uniqueness of each stage in life, but we value being an intergenerational people. We believe that finding our place in the family means engaging with those at different stages. Mysteriously the whole body builds itself up in love as each part does its work (Ephesians 4:16). We love celebrating our diversity in a way that reflects the unity we have in Jesus Christ.
Our experience has taught us that the crossroads and transitions of life are critical moments when God has our attention and is intent on taking us to the next level of our Spiritual formation. That could be as a result of a move, a loss, a change or some kind of life transition. If you find yourself at such a place, and you would like to know more about our church, please phone the church office (489-3875) to arrange an opportunity to visit with one of our pastors.
We would welcome the opportunity to meet with you!
May the Lord Jesus Himself shepherd you at this stage of your life, for your good and His glory!
Sincerely,
The Pastoral Staff of Whyte Ridge Baptist Church
Who We Are
As part of the North American Baptist Conference, Whyte Ridge Baptist Church (WRBC) is an evangelical church that seeks to be led by the Spirit of God to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, and to glorify God. We believe that the Bible is God’s Word given by divine inspiration.
The Church was founded in 1961 as Grant Park Baptist Church, a small community based church. With growth, we moved into the new developing community of Whyte Ridge, and built a new building in 1988. We developed a presence and a good reputation within the community. With growth continuing around us, we are seeking to expand once again and have purchased 14 acres of land to allow us to build once again. We believe that God will enable and guide us to build a new facility to more effectively carry out our purpose and vision, and be positive influence in our community.
Our Purpose
To honour God by making disciples at home and around the world who clearly demonstrate changed lives in their worship, fellowship and witness
Our Vision
To be a family of believers who act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God, making disciples in our families, friendships, neighbourhoods and among people of all cultures.
“He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:8
