Dear Friend,
When I preached my first message in front of 14 people to begin the ministry of Peace Baptist Church, I pledged to start a church that would radically change our community. In that first sermon, I spoke of the church being an outreach center to address the spiritual, emotional, relational, and economic needs of hurting people. I spoke of the ministry village open 24 hours a day to house men, women, and children. I talked about church planting and reaching different people groups around the world and in our city. With tears streaming down my face I cast vision for comprehensive feeding programs, training for at risk youth, Christ-centered drug rehab ministries, and family reunification program. It has been an exciting journey to see how God in just 15 years has made much of that dream a reality.
Presently, Peace Baptist Church is positioned to accomplish even more than I ever dreamed possible. Our vision has expanded to include ministry partners who share our dream. We are passionate about extending the Kingdom of God by uniting with hundreds of like minded saints who understand that we must unite to maximize our strength. This site outlines what Peace Baptist has done, is doing, and seeks to do in the future. It is my hope that you will find yourself within these pages. I simply pray that God will prompt your heart to join us in whatever capacity you feel comfortable. Let’s join hands and hearts to bring God glory through effective and life changing ministry.
Your co-laborer,
Tyrone E. Barnette
