We offer Sunday services at 10:15am in English and 12pm in Spanish. Children ages pre-kindergarten through 2nd grade are welcome to attend Worship KidStyle in Building B during the 10:15 service times. See the Kids Ministry page for more information.

We want you to feel at home during our worship times. We don’t have a dress code. Though some will dress up, most people dress casually, in jeans or slacks with casual shirts. We want you to come and worship just as you are because the Lord is more concerned about your heart than He is about what you wear.

If you are a first time guest, we have specially designated parking spaces directly in front of our building just for you.
When you arrive at our church, one of our friendly “Greeters” will make you feel welcome, and direct you to the Worship Center or a small group if you desire.

At Shiloh Terrace Baptist Church you will discover a warm group of real people dedicated to following our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. From the moment you walk up to the building you can expect…

 

A Warm Greeting – A heartfelt greeting is part of what makes a church a church. No matter what question you might have just ask. Our greeters are there to help you get settled and comfortable.

 

Hot Coffee – There’s nothing like the smell of good coffee (or tea) to warm you up.

 

Fun – A casual atmosphere where friendships can form and relationships deepen. A place that is serious about joy, true joy, the kind of joy that comes from real connection with God and others.

 

Conversation – Expect to be noticed. Expect people to say something like, “Hi, we haven’t met before, is this your first time?”. Expect for people to reach out to you in love.

 

Worship – We love music, all kinds of music to show our Lord how much we love and honor Him.

 

Truth – Shiloh Terrace Baptist Church is a multi-ethnic community connecting people to Christ by Loving, Growing, Serving, and Sharing.

On Sundays, childcare is offered for babies through 3 years in Noah’s Nursery. For children ages pre-kindergarten through 2nd grade, we offer age appropriate Connection Groups at 9:00 a.m. and Worship KidStyle during the regular service time which is held upstairs in Building B. Check in at the Children’s Ministry desk and a greeter will be glad to assist you.

During the services, our Worship Pastor directs the congregation when to stand, usually during the singing portion, when reading God’s Word, and sometimes during prayer. If you have disabilities that prevent you from standing, please just sit and enjoy the service.

Since our pastor teaches directly from God’s Word, if you have a Bible please bring it with you, if not we have Bibles you can use in the pews. You can also download our free STBC app in the App store or Google Play store (or text STBC APP to 77977), and use the Bible on our App.

For children ages pre-kindergarten through 2nd grade, we offer Worship KidStyle in Building B during our regular service times. For children 3 and under, we have Wee Worship in the Noah’s Nursery. See Kids Ministry for more information.

During the closing song of each service, there are prayer counselors at the front and rear of the worship center ready to pray with you.  If you have a desire for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, be baptized, or you wish to join our church, simply go to the Next Steps area as you exit the worship center.

As a guest we do not expect you to give an offering, unless you feel led to do so. Our church members support Shiloh Terrace with their tithes and offerings. If you feel led to do so, click here.
