About Us
We are a fellowship of Christ followers who live in amazement of the awesome power of the living God.
We believe the paramount act of humanity is to love God.
God mightily works through us to promote the practical values of a genuine relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and one another for daily living.
Therefore, we worship, pray, reach the lost, disciple believers, and meet community needs.
Gallup Hill Baptist Church ensures successful ministries by dependence on prayer, the Bible, and Holy Spirit.
| Structured & Friendly |
| Our services are thoughtfully organized with a variety of resources intended to provide meaningful responses to God. We include traditional and contemporary music, drama, and truthful preaching from Scripture. We believe our time together should be informal, yet well planned. |
| Family Oriented |
| Children are welcomed here. In fact, we feel that children are a very high priority. Our programs are geared for all ages. We also provide parents with support and resources. |
| Military Friendly |
| Military personnel often find it hard to fit into a community because they are considered "transient" or "temporary visitors." Not here! We understand the military lifestyle and want to encourage you to serve your country and God. You bring a wealth of experience that can enrich others, and you have unique difficulties that others may overlook. We understand, you are welcome here! |
| No Financial Pressure |
| Financial support of this church and its activities are provided by church members. As a guest, we request that you not give unless you truly desire to. You may worship here and enjoy our activities without pressure for money. |
