We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to ask life’s big questions:
What is my purpose?
Who is Jesus and why does He matter?
Why is there suffering?
Alpha is a series of conversations that explore life, spirituality, and faith in a fun, nonjudgmental, and open environment. Each session includes dinner, a short video, and a discussion where you can talk about your thoughts and questions with people from all different backgrounds. Try it the first night and see if Alpha is right for you. No strings attached, no pressure, and no cost.

European Leadership Forum
May 13-24, 2025 | Poland Trip is Full - Join the Waitlist
Cost: $1825 (airfare is additional)
Although most Christians don’t think of Europe as a spiritually needy continent, just 3% of Europeans identify as evangelicals. To address this need, SBC has made a major commitment to minister to leaders throughout Europe by sending logistical support teams to the annual European Leadership Forum in Poland. Sponsored by the Forum of Christian Leaders (FOCL), the European Leadership Forum is a strategic effort to train, encourage, and strengthen more than 800 evangelical leaders from 59 countries who often serve in antagonistic and isolated environments. Members of the SBC volunteer team provide vital support to make the Forum a success. Serving on the team is an energizing, humbling, and unforgettable experience!
Open to: Adults (over 18)
To be placed on the waiting list or for more information, please contact Kathy Mersbach.

Baptisms
Sunday, November 17 | All Campuses
Baptism is a symbolic picture of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. When a Christian is immersed in the water, this person is identifying with Jesus in those events and making a public declaration of faith in Jesus as Savior and Lord. Jesus commanded His followers to be baptized; if you are new to faith in Christ or have never been baptized, we would love to come alongside you as you take this important step in your spiritual journey!
If you are interested in getting baptized, sign up below and we will contact you regarding available dates and next steps.
Learn about baptism to discover if this is your next best step.
