You are always welcome at Second Baptist Church. We invite you to participate in our many opportunities for worship; for it is our intent to "Rise In God's Love", that is, to be steadfast, unmovable, and always increasing in the work of the Lord.

Second Baptist Church of Paterson, New Jersey is made up of various ministries that seek to address the individual and collective needs of its members and surrounding community. Our primary objective is to minister and be ministered to in mind, body, soul and spirit through in-depth preaching, teaching, evangelism and witnessing the anointed Word of God through Jesus Christ.

The church's five-fold mission is as follows:

1. Worship- to bring people to know and lift the name of Jesus in
   worship and praise.
2. Fellowship - to promote Christian fellowship encouraging one another to love and practice good works.
3. Devotion - to encourage the practice of weekly family devotion in the home.
4. Discipleship - to nurture mature and active disciples for Christ.
5. Evangelism - to go out and make disciples of others

The vision of Second Baptist is stated as:

"A commitment to Educate, Train and Build Ourselves and Our Communities ~ Seeking God First."

The church's ultimate calling is to first know, understand, dedicate their lives to, and serve God. The scriptural basis of this statement is taken from
Matthew 6:33: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteous; and all these things shall be added unto you."

Our church is committed to providing resources, opportunities and services that will educate, train and revitalize its people and communities.

Rev. Alexander McDonald, III, D. Min., Pastor
