About Us

Welcome to Eastville Baptist Church. We are glad you are here. 

Who We Are

Who We Are

At Eastville Baptist Church, we believe that every person is created with purpose and deeply loved by God. Our mission is to equip one another with the light of Christ so that we may shine His truth, grace, and love into the lives of those around us. This calling is not merely a task to accomplish, but a joyful journey we walk together as a church family. 

We are committed to the life-transforming message of the gospel—the good news of Jesus Christ as revealed in the unfolding story of the Bible. From Genesis to Revelation, God’s Word speaks of His faithfulness, His justice, His mercy, and His desire to redeem and restore broken lives. At EBC, we gather around this truth every week, eager to hear from God, respond in worship, and live out His calling in our everyday lives.

Come as you are!

Come as you are!

We warmly invite you to be part of this community of faith. Whether you are exploring Christianity for the first time, returning after time away, or seeking a place to grow deeper in your walk with Christ, you are welcome here. We desire to be more than just a Sunday gathering—we want to be a home, a family, and a shelter for the weary. 

Rather than holding tightly to the grace God has given us, we strive to extend it freely. Our goal is to be a faithful presence in Eastville and beyond—meeting real needs, offering compassion, and building relationships that reflect the heart of Jesus. We hope to be a place where the hurting can find healing, where the lonely can find community, and where all people can encounter the living God. 

Through the teaching of Scripture, heartfelt worship, intentional discipleship, and hands-on ministry, we pray that you will come to see the beauty of the gospel and the goodness of the God who redeems. Come grow with us, serve with us, and experience the joy of walking together in His light.

“To know Christ, to grow in Christ, and to make Christ known.”

Our Vision

Living Our Vision

A Church Rooted in Christ

At Eastville Baptist Church, our vision is to be a Christ-centered community where every person is transformed by the truth of God's Word and mobilized for His mission. We long to see lives changed—not by programs or personalities, but by the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. In a world searching for meaning, we exist to point people to the hope, peace, and purpose that can only be found in Him. 

A People Growing in Grace

We believe that following Jesus is a lifelong journey of growth. Our vision is to cultivate a community where believers are nurtured in their faith through worship, biblical teaching, prayer, and meaningful relationships. We are committed to discipleship that goes beyond surface-level religion. Through the work of the Holy Spirit and the foundation of Scripture, we aim to equip every believer to become mature in Christ—grounded in truth, growing in love, and faithful in obedience.

A Light to Our Community and Beyond

Our church is not just here for ourselves. We are here for Eastville and the surrounding communities. We desire to be a beacon of light—serving with compassion, offering hope to the broken, and standing boldly for truth. Whether through local outreach, global missions, or daily acts of kindness, our vision is to live sent lives—carrying the light of Christ wherever He leads us.

A Place of Healing and Hope

We know that life is often hard, and many people walk through our doors carrying burdens, questions, and wounds. Our vision is to be a church where the hurting are embraced, where grace is tangible, and where lives are restored by the redeeming love of God. We want Eastville Baptist Church to be a refuge—offering the comfort of Christ and the care of His people to anyone in need.

A Future Shaped by Faith

As we look to the future, we are not content with comfort or routine. We desire to be a church marked by faith, humility, and boldness—ready to follow God wherever He leads. We are praying for revival in our own hearts, renewal in our community, and a legacy of faithfulness that reaches generations to come.

Come and See

We invite you to be part of what God is doing at Eastville Baptist Church. Whether you are seeking truth, longing for belonging, or looking for a place to serve, we believe God has something here for you. Our vision is not just words on a page—it is a call to walk together in love, truth, and mission as we follow Jesus Christ.

Together, we press on—knowing Christ, growing in Christ, and making Christ known.

Our Beliefs

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God—fully God and fully man. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. In Him, God perfectly revealed Himself to the world.

Jesus lived a sinless life and willingly offered Himself as the substitute for our sins through His death on the cross. His sacrifice made full atonement for the sins of all who would trust in Him.

On the third day, He rose bodily from the grave, demonstrating His victory over sin and death. He ascended into heaven and is now seated at the right hand of the Father, where He reigns as Lord and intercedes for believers.

We believe that Jesus will return personally and visibly in glory to judge the living and the dead and to bring His Kingdom to completion.
Salvation is found in Christ alone, by grace alone, through faith alone.

As Scripture declares:

“Jesus said, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.’” – John 14:6

Short Summary 

Jesus Christ is the Son of God, our Savior and Lord. He lived a sinless life, died for our sins, rose again on the third day, and reigns forever. Through faith in Him alone, we receive forgiveness and eternal life.


What We Believe About the Bible

We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God—completely true, trustworthy, and without error in its original writings. It was written by men who were divinely guided by the Holy Spirit and reveals God’s perfect plan for His creation and for our salvation through Jesus Christ.

The Bible is our supreme authority for what we believe and how we live. It is the final word in all matters of faith, doctrine, and daily conduct. Every page of Scripture points us to Jesus, the living Word, and teaches us how to walk faithfully with Him.

We believe that the Scriptures are sufficient and complete, containing everything we need to know God, to grow in godliness, and to carry out His mission in the world.

As Scripture says:

“All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness.” — 2 Timothy 3:16–17

Short Summary

The Bible is God’s inspired and infallible Word. It is our final authority for truth, faith, and life, revealing who God is and how we can know Him through Jesus Christ.

Eastville Baptist Church is joyfully part of a larger family of believers through our partnerships with the Bridge Network of Churches
and the Baptist General Association of Virginia (BGAV)

These connections allow us to join hands with other churches across the Eastern Shore, Virginia, and beyond — working together to share the hope of Jesus, support missions, and strengthen local ministries. We value these relationships because they remind us that we’re part of something bigger than ourselves — the growing Kingdom of God.
