About Terrace heights baptist church
Terrace Heights Baptist Church: A Community of Faith and Love
Terrace Heights Baptist Church (THBC) is a vibrant community of faith located in Yakima, Washington. For over 60 years, THBC has been a place where people come together to worship God, grow in their faith, and serve others. With a commitment to biblical teaching and compassionate outreach, THBC is dedicated to making a positive impact on the world around us.
Covid-19 Response
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, THBC has adapted its worship services to an online format. Every Sunday morning at 10:15am, you can join us for our online worship service on our Facebook page. We invite you to connect with us as we continue to seek God's guidance during these challenging times.
Our Beliefs
At THBC, we believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God and that it provides us with everything we need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). We believe in one God who exists eternally in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - each fully divine yet distinct from one another. We believe that Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation (John 14:6) and that through faith in Him alone we can be reconciled to God.
Our Mission
The mission of THBC is simple yet profound - "to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength; and love our neighbor as ourselves" (Mark 12:30-31). This mission drives everything we do as a church - from our worship services to our outreach programs. We are committed to sharing the love of Christ with everyone we meet.
Worship Services
At THBC, we offer two Sunday morning worship services - traditional at 8:30am and contemporary at 11am. Our traditional service features hymns led by choir while our contemporary service features modern worship songs led by a praise band. Both services include biblical teaching and prayer.
Children's Ministry
We believe that children are a precious gift from God and that they deserve to be loved, nurtured, and taught about Jesus. That's why we offer a variety of programs for children of all ages - from nursery care to Sunday School classes to Vacation Bible School. Our goal is to help children grow in their faith and develop a lifelong relationship with Jesus.
Youth Ministry
Our youth ministry is designed for students in grades 6-12. We believe that teenagers are not just the future of the church but also an important part of the church today. That's why we offer weekly youth group meetings, retreats, mission trips, and other events designed to help students grow in their faith and build meaningful relationships with one another.
Adult Ministries
At THBC, we believe that every adult has unique gifts and talents that can be used for God's glory. That's why we offer a variety of adult ministries - from Bible studies to small groups to men's and women's ministries - designed to help adults connect with one another, grow in their faith, and serve others.
Outreach Programs
We believe that the love of Christ should extend beyond the walls of our church building into our community and beyond. That's why we offer a variety of outreach programs - from food banks to homeless shelters to international missions - designed to share the love of Christ with those who need it most.
Conclusion
Terrace Heights Baptist Church is more than just a building or an organization - it is a community of faith where people come together to worship God, grow in their faith, serve others, and make an impact on the world around us. Whether you're looking for spiritual guidance or simply seeking fellowship with other believers, THBC welcomes you with open arms. Join us as we seek God together!
