ABOUT US

THE CHURCH

We are a Church that loves Jesus, teaches the Word of God & is friendly to people.

No church is perfect.  No people have ever been perfect, with the exception of the living Son of God, Jesus.  So, no pressure.  We’re all doing the best we can in an imperfect world.  We strive to honor God and live lives that are pleasing to Him, enjoying His blessings and favor, and helping others along their journey.  Click below to review some of our specific beliefs.

WHO WE ARE

OUR MISSION

 Lizella Baptist Church exists to lead people into relationship with Jesus Christ by reaching, discipling, and serving others.

REACH

REACH.


Part of Lizella life is caring enough for others to reach out to them in love. 

Not everyone is ready for religion, but everyone is born ready to be loved.

 

How we reach out may look a little different for every  person, but one thing we know according to John 3:16, God loves the whole world – every person He creates – and He wants them all to know Him.

 

When we reach out to others in love, we are blessed in following His example

and they are blessed by His love.

OUR HISTORY

Back in 1920, Rev. John C. Mays met with Lizella leaders to discuss the need for a Baptist Church.  Property was purchased and friends from nearby Bethel Baptist voted to support the establishment of a church at Lizella.  Over the next two years, the property was improved upon and dedication of the new church was set for October 1, 1922, with Rev. H.H. Mosely as pastor.
