Welcome To Our Church

Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, the members of the Warwick Central Baptist Church extend a warm welcome and invite you to visit our church through this page. WCBC is a community of believers that is committed to Growing in Christ, Sharing Christ and Serving Christ together.

We welcome people of all walks of life as we seek to build a healthy spiritual community with love and humility, reflecting the character of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We strive to blend the faith witness and wisdom of our older members with the excitement and enthusiasm of the younger people, so that our life together, and the ministries that emerge from our fellowship, are fresh, vital, and prophetic.

For me, the most significant part of Local church ministry is the daily interaction with people of the church and the community. It is a tremendous privilege to be allowed into the lives of these people I work with and for. Recognizing that each day brings possibilities for special interaction with some part of the body of Christ, as well as opportunities to bear witness to God’s love to those outside the body is a special blessing.

Rev. John Houlker -Church Pastor

You will find Warwick Central to be relaxed in its style worship, and, while we wish to you make you feel most welcome, we do recognize that it can sometimes feel intimidating to enter a church you’re not familiar with. You are our respected and welcome guest, and we hope you will feel as comfortable in our house as you would in that of a valued friend. Please don’t hesitate to ask our greeters at the door if you have any questions, or need somebody to help you manage the Bible and Hymnal during the service.

We hope, as well, that this information will give you a better understanding of the way we worship, and help you feel more at home when you join us.

      A few weeks back I received an email from a colleague which began with the words, “Well, nothing says Lent quite like Epiphany Sunday!” He was referring to how quickly we are forced to “switch gears” in our thoughts and planning, as Lent looms on the horizon with each ending of the advent season.  Read more

    Traditional holiday greetings are mostly initiated with words like “Merry” (Christmas) and “Happy” (New Year). They have been on our lips for weeks now, as we seek to bless those whom we meet with words of good cheer. Often they ring hollow as a sentiment that has no place in the current life of the  Read more

    The Worship Team has chosen to theme our advent observance around the question “Where is He…”  It was the question asked by the Magi, and most likely ran through the minds of the shepherds as the searched Bethlehem for the one that was made known to them by the angels. “We have heard, we have  Read more

    In previous years and articles, I have confessed ambivalent feelings towards certain yearly holidays and observances. Thanksgiving is one of those holidays. Now, Lord knows that any observance that will make us stop and spend time at table with our family is a good thing! In a world that pulls and pushes at the family  Read more
