New Members
Hello and welcome.
I greet you all in the name of OUR Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We, the members of Piney Grove Deacons ministry, along with the entire congregation are overjoyed that you have made the decision to join us as a new member of our church Family. This church is filled with fun-loving believers who embrace the Lord’s Commandment to” love thy neighbor”. It is our intentional goal to ensure that ALL who enter our doors are made to feel welcome and at home.
This church has celebrated over 150 years of worship, service and faithfulness to the community and its members. We do this by being involved. This is something we encourage all our members to do. So, at this moment, I would like to be the first to invite you to get involved. Look around, ask around and get around to see what we have to offer. I encourage you to stretch yourself to discover the spiritual gift that is within us all.
We are strong together in fellowship when we support and encourage one another to seek after God’s heart.
We love having you at our service but would be so very excited to see you INVOLVED in our service. May the Lord’s grace and blessings continue to shower down upon you. And know that HE will be with you wherever you go.
Again, welcome to Piney Groven Now…. let’s Praise the Lord.

Salvation
We are so glad that though you were watching us wherever in the world you decided to tune-in with us, you were blessed by the worship experience you were able to have through our live-streaming services. We are excited that through the medium of social connecting, you were able to feel God, & the passion in which we do ministry with here at Piney Grove; so much so that your spirit & soul craved God today!
At Piney Grove, we believe that God can save & does save ANY one with the desire to live for Him. Yes—God can even save you!
We base this powerful belief from one of the most important scriptures in the Bible that teaches us about the gift of salvation, Romans 10:9-10. There it says, “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart; that is the word of faith we are proclaiming:
That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved! For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.”
Child of God, this simple scripture means that your path to salvation starts from your heart and channels through your mouth. It is as easy as ABC:
Accept Jesus as the son of God & the Savior of humanity.
Believe in your heart that Jesus died on the cross for your sins.
Confess that three (3) days after being buried in a grave, God raised Jesus from the dead for your justification. Meaning Jesus declared you NOT GUILTY of your sins!
We rejoice for the salvation you received through our ministry; and we invite you to remain connected with us via our social media platforms to continue to be inspired, encouraged & nurtured in your faith journey until you can find a local ministry you can serve in!
We would love you to join our congregation physically or virtually and become a spiritual, financial & global part of what we are called to do as a ministry here at Piney Grove. If you would like to join us, please visit our website, click on the tab CONNECT, and then on the word “forms.” There you will find a form entitled, “membership.” Please fill that out if you desire to be a physical or virtual member, and we will be in contact with you!
Until then, please join us again via live-streaming each Sunday, or if you are local, come by and worship with us in person as we strive to bridge God’s Kingdom to our community!
Yours in Christ Jesus,
The Piney Grove Baptist Church Family
