I invite you to come and experience the excitement at Victory Baptist Church. No matter where you are in your spiritual journey—we have a place for you. At Victory Baptist you will discover a church that is conservative in music, vibrant in spirit, and strong in preaching. Each service is different: you will be inspired to worship by the congregational and special music, and challenged by the straight forward preaching. We invite you to visit any of our four weekly services.
In 1994, I had the privilege of becoming the pastor of Victory Baptist Church. Since then, God has blessed our church in so many wonderful ways. We have seen souls saved, families encouraged, and lives changed. Victory has become a place where people are growing in their relationships with God, their families and each other. |

Each week, God’s people are strengthened, encouraged, and drawn closer to Him through these special times together. Each service is carefully planned and prayed over so that God may work in your life!
Worship is the act of loving God! Through the heart-warming, conservative music and the practical, Bible preaching in our services, your heart will be challenged to know and inspired to love God. |

Victory Baptist is committed to growing fully devoted followers of Christ through the practical teaching and application of God’s Word. Our Sunday School department is staffed by dedicated, caring teachers who weekly teach God’s truth in age-relevant lessons. Each week, Christians are becoming grounded in their faith and learning answers to their spiritual questions. Regardless of your age or background, there is a class for you, and every class has a seat available for you!

Our greatest emphasis is on our children and youth because we feel that they are our greatest asset. Children are soft and impressionable toward God, and teenagers need love and direction as they become young adults. From age-related Sunday School classes, children churches, youth choir, monthly activities, retreats, and annual mission trips we provide a place where our youth can not only learn but serve while they are learning. We provide the Bible-based wisdom they need in the fun, friendly atmosphere they enjoy.

One of the characteristics of a maturing believer is a desire to serve God. God has given each of us unique gifts and talent by which we serve Him with. Each week our members volunteer their time and talents in various positions because they love God and love people. These Christians are using their God-given gifts to serve the Lord, our church family, and our community. In a growing church, there are ever-expanding opportunities to serve God and others in ministry.

We believe that the preaching of the Word of God is the most important part of the church service. Through practical Bible preaching, families are being encouraged, needs are being met, and lives are being changed. At Victory Baptist Church, you can expect challenging sermons that open up the teachings of the Bible and apply them to your everyday life. |

As long as there is one person who needs to know Jesus Christ, Victory Baptist will continue to reach out and share the Gospel! The missions program of our church currently supports over 100 missionaries around the world, as well as operating a full-scale print shop printing Bibles which are provided to missionaries free of charge.

Our church has always had an open door policy. Feel free to ask any question about any ministry. We welcome your questions. Below are answers to some of the questions we are frequently asked.
What’s in the name Baptist?
This church is a Baptist church by conviction and principle, not by affiliation. This means that we believe the basic Bible teaching for which Baptists have historically stood.
As Baptists we believe—
• The Bible is our sole authority for all matters of faith and practice.
• The church should be autonomous or self governing.
• The believer does not need a priest other than Jesus Christ to come boldly to God.
• Every Christian has equal access to God personally.
• God’s Word gives us two ordinances for the church - baptism and the Lord’s table.
• Each person is individually responsible for his decision to accept Christ.
• The believer is eternally secure and cannot lose salvation.
For a more detailed account of what we believe, please request a copy of our doctrinal statement.
What does it mean to be an independent church?
As an independent Baptist church, we are not affiliated with any particular Baptist denomination or ruling body. Because of this we can support our own missionaries, select our own leaders, and support institutions that believe as we believe. In short, our church answers to the headship of Jesus Christ rather than a denominational body. There are currently more than 10,000 independent Baptist churches in America and thousands more throughout the world.
What does it mean to be non-charismatic?
This simply means that we are not part of the modern-day charismatic movement. We do not practice speaking in tongues, faith healing, sensationalism, or believe in extra-biblical revelation. While there are many people who prefer to worship this way, we choose to worship in ways that we feel to be consistent with God’s Word and His plan for this church.
What are your worship services like?
Every service begins with conservative and Christ-honoring music. We still sing the old hymns our grandparents used to sing. Sometime during the service an offering is taken for the members to honor the Lord with their giving. Pastor Fellure or a guest preacher will then deliver a challenging, Bible message and conclude by inviting you to make a decision for Christ. We are traditional in our style of worship, and our services are exciting and inspiring.
What is required for membership?
To be a member of Victory Baptist you must first be saved and baptized in a Baptist church of like-faith. You must also agree to live in a manner so as not to bring shame upon the name of Christ or the church. While the leadership of the church does not dictate to the personal life of the members, we do insist that the testimony of each member is vital to the life of the church.
