WHERE IS HAGUE BAPTIST CHURCH?
WHAT ARE THE SERVICE TIMES?
Worship Service: Sunday 11:00a
Prayer Service: Sunday 6:00p
HOW SHOULD I DRESS?
We don't have a dress code at Hague Baptist and we hope that clothing and other preferences won't keep anyone from worshipping and belonging with us.
HOW LONG IS THE SERVICE?
We aim for around 70 minutes with our services. One reason our services are a little longer than you may be used to is because we take the Lord's Supper together as a church family every week.
WHAT ABOUT MY KIDS?
As a dad to five amazing boys this question means so much to me (if you can't tell by the length of this section). One of my deepest convictions is to help build up faithful parents who will lead Christ-filled families whose kids will grow up to love and serve Jesus all their lives. To that end Hague Baptist will always be praying, learning, growing, implementing, and modifying our strategies and ministries in order to best equip families with with God's Word, according to God's Word.
We practice family integrated worship which means that we welcome kids (even your loudest and wiggliest ones!) to join not only their family but our whole church family in the worship service. One of the biggest factors in the lives of kids who grew up in church and kept following Jesus as an adult is that they developed their own sense of belonging within the "big church" gathering outside of their age-specific ministries. We believe that dads and moms are the primary spiritual leaders and teachers in their children's lives and that one of the best ways for our kids to learn what it means to gather and worship with God's church is by us modeling it for them and giving them opportunities to participate themselves. Because we believe God has given this special blessing and high calling to parents we want to do everything we can to support you in raising your kids to know and walk with Jesus. We currently have activity sheets with fill in the blanks and a coloring page to help kids follow along with the service.
As a church replant we are also working to implement even more ways to help kids and their families participate in the worship service together. We are working toward starting a nursery for kids 0-3 years old. Setting up a self contained section of our gathering space for kids who aren't quite ready to sit through the whole service to have a place to move around. Incorporating kids worship and scripture songs into our worship music, a short kids' story time in each service, and a family toolkit emailed to families each week to help them prepare their kids to understand the sermon and also talk about it as a family after church. As we grow we will implement age-specific children and student ministry programming as we reach families with kids and teens and raise up high quality volunteers.
