Parkview Baptist Church takes it to heart when the Bible says to love one another. Our entire staff wants everyone to know the love of God in a real-life changing fashion that creates such joy and peace for all. We are an Imperfect people, risking it all to make Jesus real one life at a time. We provide this type of environment by following Jesus for ourselves so that people may find themselves not following us, but Jesus as well. By providing a ministry of love, our prayer is to let every person know they are important to God and there is someone who cares. With all of us working together, we can make a difference!
‘For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. ‘
1 John 3:11
