MEDIA MINISTRY Audio cassettes and compact discs of the Sunday Worship service and other sermons are available in the first
floor media room immediately after Sunday Morning Worship Service.
St. John Baptist Church now stands at the final stage of a five year progressive theological methodology
to transform our spiritual conscientiousness and organize our internal operation structures.
We have addressed our past with the theme of
Repentance: A hurting church must come to terms with the past and genuinely repent, or there will be no future.
We have addressed our
emotions with the themes in Year 2004 and 2005, respectively, of Tears and Compassion.
In 2006, we have received a healing which was our
expectation.

The Church with a Mission The mission of the St. John Baptist Church is evangelistic: to make disciples for Jesus Christ [Matthew 28:18-19];
to promote the preaching of GOD's word in an atmosphere of prayer and praise, under the direction of the Holy Spirit. We are dedicated to a ministry of sharing
God's blessings; therefore, we generously support global [Acts 16:9], and home [Acts 6:1-3] missions.We will strive as a congregation for a just society for the
least of God's children, in civic engagements and in economic empowerment. We will use a portion of our resources to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and house the
homeless, as God gives us the ability [Luke 4:18-19]. We also consider education crucial and essential in the life of the Christian.
