Get Connected with Parkway Baptist!

As the Senior Pastor of Parkway Baptist, I want you to know how thrilled I am that you are considering Parkway as your church home. After deciding to place your faith in Jesus Christ, making the commitment to be involved in a local church is the next obedient step of faith. This step of faith will be a beneficial experience for you and your church family! If you have been attending the worship services of Parkway Baptist, you have witnessed the fact that God is blessing us. I believe this results from our sincere attempt to be a God-honoring church, where the Word is faithfully taught and the spiritual needs of God’s people are being met. Our desire is for each member to become active and connect with the members and ministry of Parkway Baptist. Along with the entire church staff, I sincerely desire to support you on your spiritual journey with the Lord. My fervent prayer is that as you join hands with the Body of Christ at Parkway Baptist, you will find fulfillment in making the nations glad in the goodness of God.
