new to LAKE FORK BAPTIST church?

We began in 1997 when a group of eight core members, along with our founding pastor, started meeting in various buildings around the county. The first church was constructed the same year and we have been worshiping near Lake Fork ever since!

What to expect

You can expect friendly and authentic people, Spirit-led worship, and prayerful preaching from God's Word. You can expect to be welcomed, encouraged, challenged, and, most importantly, loved. We look forward to meeting you!

our beliefs

AT LAKE FORK BAPTIST CHURCH


god

We recognize that there is one and only one living and true God, whom exists in three persons - Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit - but without division of nature, essence, or being. He is an intelligent, spiritual, and personal Being, the Creator, Redeemer, Preserver, and Ruler of the universe.

We value Bible-centered preaching and teaching as the foundation for all that we do.

PRAYER

We will intentionally seek to set aside specific times for private, family, and corporate prayer.
