Where do I park?
We have two large parking lots for your convenience. Our church is located at the corner of Highways 959 and 63. You can access a parking lot from each side.
What Time do I arrive?
Sunday School starts at 9:00 for all ages. Our Sunday morning service begins at 10:15. Our Sunday evening service begins at 6:00. Our Wednesday service starts at 6:00. Our activities for kids and youth begin at various times. Check out the WHAT WE DO page to see all the opportunities kids have for discipleship.
Where do I go?
If you’re here for 9, after you park, you can make your way over to the fellowship building. If you're looking at the sanctuary, it is the "little sanctuary" on the right. Sunday school classes for every age are in this building and in the courtyard on its right. If you’re here for 10:15 or 6, head over to the sanctuary for “big church”—you can use any door you like. Sit wherever—no one truly has “assigned seating,” and if they “usually” sit where you choose, they would LOVE to sit with you. We’re flexible here. If you’re here for a youth event - head to the fellowship hall or the “youth room” in the courtyard (or most likely - the pickleball court in the courtyard).
What do I do with my kids?
At Bluff Creek, we give you the option to include your kids in any way you choose, as much or as little as you desire. We offer a nursery for little guys and gals during Sunday School, Sunday Morning service, and the Sunday Evening service. Don't feel obligated to use the nursery if you'd rather have your kids in services with you—it is really up to your family. We are open to being patient while kids learn the culture of Bluff Creek Baptist and how to behave in ways that don’t distract others—and all of our families are at different places on this journey. We promise your kids will probably never do anything worse or more distracting than our own pastor’s kids have already done—we’re in this with you, and any “looks” you get will be in solidarity—we’ve ALL been there!
Kiddos birth to 3 meet for Sunday school in the nursery. Kiddos Pre-K to high school meet in the Sunday School classes next to the courtyard off the “little sanctuary” we call the fellowship hall.
Where do I find the coffee?
Before Sunday school, we have coffee in the fellowship building's kitchen. Feel free to head to the kitchen and make yourself a cup.
Do I need to dress up?
That's your call. As long as you're clothed, you'll fit right in at Bluff Creek. Some people choose to wear a suit or a dress, while others prefer their wranglers and boots. We have folks who dress in a wide range of attire, and we've even seen some in overalls (right off the tractor) or camo (right off the stand)—as long as you're comfortable, that is all that matters.
WHAT if I have special needs?
Please let us know how we can best serve you. If you or your family have any special needs, please email us, and we will do whatever we can to accommodate you.
What is the Service like?
We're a pretty traditional Southern Baptist church. In a standard service, we sing theologically rich & doctrinally sound hymns, have a time of prayer, have a special message for our children (with treats!), and then our pastor gives a 30-40-minute expositional and exegetical message. If your kiddos are going to the nursery, they can head to the back foyer after the “children’s time” portion of our service.
What happens after the service?
That's your call - but we’re probably going to be hanging out until they turn the lights off on us. After the service, people will want to meet you. Our people at Bluff Creek are charming and genuinely want to get to know you. If you fill out a “contact card” and put it in the offering, our Pastor will contact you at some point during the week so you can get to know him a little better. He would love to meet you for coffee (he loves getting to know people one-on-one), or his family would love to share a meal with you and get to know your family, too.
