Second Baptist Church

About this church

Second Baptist Church begins Sunday School at 9:30 a.m. and worship at 10:05 on Chapman Lane in Elyria, with remote participation offered through Facebook and conference call. The first Sunday adds baptism at 9:00 and Communion at 9:30. Wednesday provides a midday prayer call from noon to 12:30 and an evening worship and Bible-study gathering published at 6:45 p.m.; the congregation's about page also references noon and 7:00 Bible studies, so visitors should confirm the exact evening start when planning. These multiple access points reflect a church that pairs a traditional Baptist weekly rhythm with telephone and online participation.

Mission is central to Second Baptist's public identity. The church supports a sister congregation in Jamaica, operates a prison ministry and home-mission DVD program, and uses its Taste of South community festival as an outreach setting. Children attend church on the second and third Sundays, teenagers have a second-Sunday Teen Church, and the fourth Sunday is Youth Day. Young people can also participate in cherub and youth choirs, puppetry, praise dance, Vacation Bible School, ushering, Young Davids, Guild Girls, and Hype Night. The range gives youth visible worship and service roles rather than limiting formation to Sunday School alone.
