Our Story

Established in 1919 by a few brave souls that loved the Lord. She has always prided herself on being a community church. New Prospect seeks to be the Village Well. The Village Well is the one place in the community that is essential to all life. In the scripture Moses met his wife at the Village Well; Issac got his wife at the Village Well; Jesus transformed a woman at the Village Well.

Our Purpose

The purpose of the New Prospect Baptist Church of God is three-fold. To EXALT Christ, To EVANGELIZE The Lost & To EDIFY The Body. Our Mission: To Edify The Savior, Evangelize The Sinner, Educate The Saints and Elevate Society

Our Beliefs

We believe in and worship the triune God, one God in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. We believe that sin resulted in the fall of humanity and separation from God. We believe humanity is sinful by nature and by choice, and is in need of a Savior for redemption and restoration to fellowship with God.
