52 Days of Faith

Sunday, November 9, 2014 marks 52 days remaining in the year.  With all the excitement that typically accompanies this time of year, I hope you will find renewed excitement in the Lord. 

To help kindle this excitement, Wentworth Baptist Church announces our "52 Days of Faith" campaign. 

Over these last 52 days of 2014, we are going to seek the Lord through prayer, Bible study, church attendance, and godly living that we may see what God will do in, for, and through a fully yielded body of believers. 

• By faith, we are asking God to encourage and grow faithful Christians in their faith.
• By faith, we are asking God to lead backslidden Christians to repentance and restoration into fellowship of a good church.
• By faith, we are asking God for lost souls to be saved.
• By faith, we are asking God for those who are hurting to be healed.
• By faith, we are asking God for those who are separated to be reconciled.

Jesus says in Matthew 21:22, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive."

 Hebrews 11:6 says God "is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him."

We had a wonderful week this past week.  We were able to get our piano repaired and tuned. We had a huge turnout for the work day/soul winning on Saturday. We got the building prepared for the installation of some new insulation, and cleared out some junk from the carport. We got to put tracts out in Rumney finishing up over there. We even met several very nice people who expressed an interest in visiting the church.


As we pray for those people to come, the Lord, in the meantime, brought us several first-time visitors on Sunday. One little girl mentioned she wanted to know more about getting saved. She did not get saved on Sunday, but she is hungry, so we shall continue to feed her the word of God and pray for her.


This morning, we got the insulation installed, and it is already making a difference. Praise the Lord for His goodness! The stairway and downstairs level have been horribly cold and drafty in the winter because there was absolutely no insulation and there were huge gaps between rocks of the foundation allowing cold air to flow unimpeded into the building. The gaps have now been plugged, several inches of foam insulation blown in, and many praises to God said.


The Lord is doing a marvelous work here at WBC. It is exciting to be a part of this ministry. We have many exciting things coming up that you do not want to miss. Till next time, may the Lord richly bless you all.

Much More To Come!

Stay tuned as we update this page with audio sermons, pictures, and more.

Prayer Meeting

A church-wide prayer meeting is held each Sunday morning at 9:00 am at the church.  The Lord's House becomes a house of prayer. We come together for a “sweet hour of prayer.”  Prayer is offered for the services of the week and also for those who have not received Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, as well as those dealing with health concerns or other special needs.

 Our desire is that as we come together as a church; we pray with one heart and in one accord.  We pray with a belief that the Lord Jesus Christ will answer all of our prayers according to His will.  Our prayer meetings are indeed a sweet hour of prayer.

What To Expect

You can expect to find a welcoming, warm and friendly church who loves the Lord Jesus Christ.

You can expect the Bible to be taught and preached as the only source of reliable truth; as it is the Word of God.

You can expect singing of the great hymns of our faith that are doctrinally accurate and teach us about the Lord.

You can expect special, uplifting music from our choir, ensembles, groups, instrumentalists and individuals that honor Jesus Christ.  The music ministry of Wentworth Baptist Church prepares the heart for worship and the ministry of the Word of God through preaching. Preaching is foremost of all that we do.

You can expect to find a church that still holds the faith once delivered to the saints.

You can expect to find a Sunday School class that teaches the Bible for every member of your family.

You can expect to find a church family that prays for each others needs and bears the burdens of other believers in Christ.

You can expect to find a place where you can to serve Jesus Christ in the ministry of this local church.

You can expected to find a church who is obedient in the work God has given it to do, both in our community and around the world.

You can expect a church that still believes in winning souls to Christ through personal testimony and witness.

Why not Visit with us this Sunday?

Our Ministries

The ministries of Wentworth Baptist Church are designed with the priority of bringing the lost to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. The ministries are made available so that the members of the Wentworth Baptist Church can live the abundant Christian life which is found in serving along with other believers in Christ. The Word of God says in Luke 22:32, "But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren." One of the best ways to strengthen and encourage one another is found in serving the Lord together in local church ministry. Our prayer is for you to know Christ as your Savior and be involved in a local church home that cares for you. There is a ministry for all to be involved in.

Our Beliefs

As Baptists we are marked by certain distinctives that separate and differentiate us from all other faiths.

1. We believe in the absolute authority of the Bible and hold to no other creed or guideline for our faith, government, practice and purpose.

2. We believe that each church is autonomous and completely independent. For the Christian church there is no head but Christ and no headquarters but Heaven.

3. We believe in the priesthood of every believer. The Bible teaches that we have one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. Through Christ's blood we are able to come boldly to the throne of grace by simply pleading the cross of Calvary.

4. We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ alone. Salvation does not come by our good works, or by the waters of baptism.

5. We believe that the church is not a fortress but rather headquarters to bring about the purpose that Christ has given us to: preach the gospel, baptize believers and train people to serve the Lord and follow God's Word.
