What is Heritage’s over-all purpose?
Heritage’s over-all purpose is to be a spiritual family that magnifies the Father, matures in the Son, and spreads the message of reconciliation throughout the world.
What is your Worship Service like?
Our Sunday morning Worship Service is warm, vibrant, and focused on God. A full choir and praise band leads the congregation in singing a blend of traditional hymns and contemporary choruses. Dynamic preaching takes us into God’s Word and helps us apply its truths to our daily lives.
Where do I go for information on Sunday?
Located just outside the Sanctuary, our Welcome Center exists to answer questions about our church family and provide directions to the nursery, children’s classrooms, adult classrooms, bathrooms, and coffee.
What programs do you have for children?
Heritage has a variety of ministers for children from birth to the sixth grade. Nursery is provided during Sunday School and the Worship Service and on Wednesday evenings. Older children enjoy graded Sunday School classes on Sunday morning, children’s choirs on Sunday evenings, and AWANAs each Wednesday evening. Vacation Bible School and All Star Kids Camp take place every summer. Our facilities are clean, safe, and fully supervised by caring adults.
What programs do you have for teenagers?
The Heritage Student Ministry provides many opportunities for students to grow in their faith, build relationships, serve the church and the community, and reach out to those who haven’t heard of the love of Christ. Sunday morning Blitz is a large-group gathering for worship and Wednesday evening HUDDLE is an age-graded, small group discipleship time. There are also SLT and TEAM groups meeting regularly on Sunday evenings.
How is Heritage structured?
Heritage seeks to structure itself according to the Bible and it teaches leadership by a plurality of elders and pastors. Therefore Heritage is shepherded by a body of lay and senior staff elders as well as by many full-time pastors. In addition to elders and pastors, the entire congregation has a vital role in ministering to one another and participating in all of the affairs of church-life.
How does someone become a member?
While anyone is welcome to attend our services, only those who have trusted in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, have been baptized by immersion after their profession of faith in Christ, and affirm our statement of beliefs may become a member of the Heritage Family. Simply pick up a Membership Packet at the Welcome Center, complete the Membership Application, and attend the next Membership Matters Course.
Is Heritage affiliated with a denomination?
Heritage is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention and the Capital Baptist Association. Like all Southern Baptist churches, Heritage is independently governed but cooperates for the purpose of local and world-wide missions.
