NEXT STEPS
At Purcellville Baptist Church, we are all about helping people take their next step to follow Jesus. Below are the ways we help you do just that.
Know God
Salvation
At PBC we believe you can personally know God. This starts with having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Baptism
God wants you to let everyone know about your decision to follow Jesus and this is done through baptism!
God’s Word
God tells us about Himself in the Bible. By reading it regularly we get to know Him better so we can live a life reflecting Him.
Prayer
No relationship is good without communication. Prayer is how we talk to God sharing what is on our hearts and listening for Him.
Find Freedom
Life Groups
These are ongoing groups that meet for the most part year round. They are open and ready for you to join to build relationships around the community.
Life Support
These are support groups to help where people sometimes struggle in life. Whether a trial or tragedy, the goal of these groups are to provide and hope for people.

Spiritual Gifting
God has given each believer spiritual gifts. Do you know what yours are? Discovering and using your gifts allows you to experience maximum fulfillment with minimum frustration as you live the Christian life.
Make a Difference
Membership
Church membership wasn’t invented by pastors, ministry leaders, or church growth experts. All through the New Testament people who believed in Jesus began to meet with other believers to form local churches. Membership is more than just coming to church every Sunday. It says, “I belong” and I’m committed.” To find out more about membership at PBC join us at Growth Track.
Serving
Making a difference is easy – just start serving. Jesus said “I did not come to be served but to serve…” and look at the impact he made in the lives of others. Serving one another is where and how we truly MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Missions
Jesus to his disciples to “go into the world and make disciples…” We are committed to supporting missionaries, both in our community and the world.
Giving
We make a difference through generosity and giving! God designed the church to receive tithes and offerings to help spread the gospel and share with those in need. Not one person can give enough to help. However, God’s plan is to pull our resources together to make a difference in the lives of others through our generosity and giving.
