Our Ministries

The mission statement of Westside Baptist is building a community of WEST and achieving the missions of SIDE.

A community of WEST is a community of

Worship

Evangelism

Sharing/Fellowship and

Teaching

which achieves the mission of

Sending

Integrating

Developing

Equipping

This is the kind of community that Christ Jesus intends us to be.

In order to achieve this goal, both church leaders and believers have to change their life and mentality. Unlike traditional belief, worship, evangelism, caring and teaching are no longer only led by or done by pastoral staff. They are the responsibilities of the whole community.

Westside believes that a small group provides the optimal environment for the life change Jesus Christ intends for every believer. Significant relationships (including one-to-one) occur best in the context of a small group. A small group of believers who love one another with God's love will experience the life Christ promised at the deepest level possible. This love radically transforms them and demonstrates His power.

Evangelism is also best done in small groups. Mobilizing a whole army of lay ministers, outlet for evangelism is expanded and is done on friendship base. Christian life is lived out in the small group. The gospel becomes WYSIWYG, which eliminates the fear of going to some mysterious church meetings for the non-believers.

What one can expect

One can expect genuine and authentic christian life. A variety of small groups are designed to meet the individual needs of believers, as well as the diverse needs of the body as a whole.

In small groups, if one can open up oneself, one can experience

Loving one another: caring for each other, community building and sharing

Loving God: Bible study, prayer, worship and growth in Christ likeness

Loving others: evangelism, mission, service to the church and making contribution in any group

A group that by design does not contribute the above goal of spiritual maturity may well be a collection of Christians, but it is not a successful small group.
