how to serve

The various ministries of Mt. Helm Baptist Church offers opportunities for all to serve our community and share the gospel of Jesus Christ. 

who we are

As a flagship church, Mount Helm exists to demonstrate and provide transformative Christian leadership in our city, our state and our world through the power of the Spirit. 

But we’re not only called to lead; we’re also called to cultivate leaders. As Henrik Ibsen said, “A community is like a ship; everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm.” When life’s storms come, you need to be prepared to weather them—and to lead in them! Mt Helm is therefore committed to helping you navigate life and invites you on a fantastic voyage with God that will transform you and the world in which you live.

our vision

​

Mt. Helm Baptist Church, which exists to the glory of God so that through us changed lives can change the world, seeks to become an intentionally intergenerational, family-friendly church that changes lives through Gospel witness and emphasis on the work of the Holy Spirit. A leading congregation in our state’s capital city, Mt. Helm connects the seminary to the sanctuary, and the sanctuary to the streets and suites. Said differently, we desire to be a safe space for hard questions and heart issues, while also being committed to social transformation, all within the scope of biblical Christianity and holistic Spirit-filled discipleship.
