Strait Gate Bible Church

About this church

Strait Gate Bible Church meets at 300 Havendale Boulevard in Auburndale for Sunday morning worship at 10:00, Sunday evening worship at 6:00, and Wednesday Bible study at 7:00 p.m. The independent congregation describes itself as family oriented, committed to the King James Bible, old hymns, and direct expository preaching. Its website maintains recent sermon recordings, allowing prospective visitors to hear the church’s teaching before attending.

Evangelism and discipleship shape much of the weekly life. Members meet at the church for neighborhood outreach Sundays at 3:00 p.m., while a Saturday 10:00 a.m. “Fishers of Men” class trains participants to explain their faith before they go out in pairs. The Breaking Chains jail ministry serves in Frostproof on Tuesday evenings and requires volunteers to complete an orientation and approval process in Bartow. A nursing-home ministry conducts a regular Friday service with prayer, hymns, Bible reading, and preaching for residents who cannot travel to church. These programs make the congregation’s priorities unusually explicit: multiple weekly preaching services, structured evangelism training, and recurring ministry outside its building. Visitors should expect a conservative, independent Bible-church setting rather than a denominational or contemporary worship format.
