"Proclaiming the Gospel from the Deerfield Valley to the Ends of the Earth"
At Deerfield Baptist Church we have a singular purpose: "To glorify God and to enjoy Him forever!" (as stated in the Westminster Catechism) Receiving Jesus Christ as Savior & Lord is certainly the most important decision that anyone will ever make in this life. Once this decision is made, we believe that the very best way to "glorify" God is by telling the GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD, beginning in Jerusalem (in the Deerfield Valley) and extending to the uttermost parts of the Earth. We have gladly received and adopted the Acts 1:8 model as our primary strategy in reaching all of the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
William Carey is the Father of the Modern Missionary Movement. He said, "Attempt great things FOR God, and expect great things FROM God." This statement is a driving force behind many of the ministries that we find ourselves involved in at Deerfield Baptist Church! While some consider us to be a "small" church, we know that we serve a "BIG" God! When we get to heaven, we simply want to hear those words..."Well done, my good and faithful servant!"
