Bay Pines Lutheran Church & School
Our Purpose and Objective
Being motivated by Christ's love, Bay Pines Evangelical Lutheran Church exists so that its members
can grow in their Christian faith and share the gospel of Christ with all people.
The church will do this by preaching and teaching the true Word of the Triune God, administering
the sacraments, acting as Christ's witnesses by sharing God's plan of salvation with all, developing
within its members a more active prayer life, and giving Christian support to one another.
These efforts will be supported as we:
Encourage regular church attendance, Bible study and a thorough Christian education at all age levels, and personal and family worship, so that we may grow in our knowledge of and love for Christ and better serve in His kingdom now and forever.
Use the Sacraments of Holy Baptism and Holy Communion as Christ instituted them, seeking to bring God's saving grace to others through Baptism and preparing the baptized for growth in God's grace through regular participation in the Lord's Supper.
Equip our members more actively to seek the lost and speak the truth by growing in their knowledge and support of our synod mission program, developing active outreach programs within our community, and training our members for more effective witnessing in their personal Christian lives. Help our members grow in using the privilege of prayer, both as individuals and as part of a spiritual family, for the purpose of praising God, asking His forgiveness and seeking His blessing on our mission.
Participate in church educational programs and fellowship activities designed to help the members recognize and develop their spiritual gifts and to promote caring, supportive Christian friendships.
