Church Overview:
Rothwell Baptist Church is a smaller family church in the heart of old Pooler. We desire to see people GROW in their relationship with Jesus, CONNECT with others, SERVE the community, and REACH people with the gospel. Our Pastor was just brought on staff in October of 2022, and the church has a desire to impact the community and is already seeing results from their effort. We currenly have a couple of youth and a few volunteers who are starting the youth ministry from scratch. Our future is bright as our children's ministry has a larger number of students who will soon flood the youth ministry. On the worship side of things, we have a blended style of service. Being multigenerational, we use timeless hymns and modern worship to glorify God. We know the Lord wants to do great things amongst our congregation and our city, and we are asking God to use us however He neess to in order to reach those around us.
