Welcome to the HEART OF OXFORD!

Located at the corner of Main and Spring Streets, Oxford Baptist Church is geographically in the heart of Oxford. More importantly, Oxford Baptist Church has a heart for mission to its community and world. If you seek a Church home that is pulsating and alive in its ministry within and outside its walls, Oxford Baptist Church has much to share. Most of all, it invites YOU to serve, fellowship, worship, learn, grow, and be on mission. There are ministries as varied as feeding the hungry in our own city, to sending teams over the world to offer an encouraging message of Christian hope.

Oxford Baptist Church is a Church that has a heart for all ages. Families abound, and children and youth have an important role in Church life through vibrant learning opportunities, choirs, and mission endeavors. You are invited to visit the pages of this website to know more about Oxford Baptist Church. Better yet, come in person for a time around the table on Wednesday evenings, and for Sunday School and worship each Sunday morning where we draw nearer to each other and nearer to the heart of God.

Oxford Baptist Church Covenant

Having been led by the Holy Spirit to accept Jesus Christ as our Redeemer and Lord; and having by our solemn burial and resurrection with Him in Baptism declared ourselves dead to sin and risen to holiness;

We, the members of the Oxford Baptist Church, do now mutually and joyfully Covenant as one body in Christ:

That we will exercise a Christian care and watchfulness over each other, and warn, exhort and admonish each other as occasion may require.  
That we will not forsake the assembling of ourselves together in the stated services of the Church, but will uphold the public worship of God and the ordinances of his House. 
That as the light of the world and salt of the earth we will seek divine guidance that we may deny ungodliness and abstain from worldliness, and will walk circumspectly before the world as witnesses for Christ.   
That we will cherish and uphold secret prayer and family religion, and will faithfully endeavor by precept and example, to train our children and those under our care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.  
That, as stewards of the Lord, we will cheerfully contribute of our means as He has prospered us, and according to the plan recommended by the church, for the maintenance of a faithful evangelical ministry among us; for the relief of the destitute; and in cooperation with the Southern Baptist Convention; for the extension of His Kingdom to all the world. 
That when we remove from this community we will, as soon as practicable, unite with another church of the same faith and order where we can carry out the spirit of this Covenant and principles of God’s word.

And may the God of Peace, who brought again from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of an eternal Covenant, even our Lord Jesus, make us perfect in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is well-pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the Glory for-ever and ever. Amen.
