What To Expect
When you visit, you can expect:
Worship: Expressing praise and adoration to God in community. When you visit, you can expect that we will glorify God through corporate worship blend of contemporary music and traditional hymns led by a choir and praise band. We also worship God together through expository preaching, Scripture memory, prayer, and periodically partaking in Communion.
Learn: Growing in knowledge of the Bible, the teachings and life of Jesus Christ, and in understanding God's design for our lives. We have a robust Sunday School program and we encourage smaller, discipleship groups. Check in at the Welcome Desk to find out more about Sunday School for all ages.
Serve: Living lives that reflect the ministry of Christ by showing love and selfless acts of kindness and generosity. While you are here, you will encounter members who are glorifying God by using their spiritual gifts to serve Jesus, the church, and our neighbors. We encourage you to find out more about how you can serve with us!
Replicate: Imparting the faith to our neighbors and future generations. Jesus calls his followers to pass on their faith in him by making disciples (Matthew 28:18-20). We would love to tell you more about how we replicate our faith through discipleship.
Our Mission
Our mission at Wilkesboro Baptist Church is to lead our neighbors and the nations to follow Jesus.
We accomplish this mission by taking four intentional steps:
WORSHIP | LEARN | SERVE | REPLICATE
FAQs
Can I attend Sunday School?
We have a strong Sunday School program as well as smaller discipleship groups. When we learn together by following Jesus, we grow in our disciple-making mission.
You can find out more about our Sunday School program here. Visit the Welcome Center in the main hallway for help choosing a Sunday School class to visit.
Are my children welcome in the church service?
Yes! You are welcome to bring your children of any age into the worship service. We believe that children can and should hear the gospel in worship services, and we believe that parents are the best model for leading your children to worship.

How can I become a member of Wilkesboro Baptist Chuch?
Church membership is an important part of following Jesus. The Bible describes the church as a body with members. Every member is necessary and beneficial to the body. By joining a church, you are committing to participate in our mission to lead our neighbors and the nations to follow Jesus by worshipin, learning, serving, and replicating.
As a part of the church body, you will be responsible for encouraging and strengthening, not causing division. Because joining a church is a serious commitment to the church's mission, it is not a decision to take lightly.
We have two membership requirements: salvation and baptism by immersion. Finally, you'll need to attend our Next Steps class.
If interested in membership, please speak with a pastor or elder and register for a Next Steps class offered 6-8 times annually.
We would be happy to talk with you further concerning church membership. Feel free to email or call us with any questions you may have at info@wilkesborobaptist.org
What is your preaching style?
Our preaching style is expository.
Our sermons are available on our website under the About Us tab; scroll to media to find our most recent service, and our YouTube and Vimeo channels.
What are your core beliefs?
Our core beliefs are grounded on the authority of Scripture and power of the gospel. We believe that people are saved by grace through faith in the gospel - the good news that Jesus gave his perfect life as a sacrifice for our sins and raised from the grave to conquer death. We believe that Scripture is God's inerrant and infallible Word.
