"The harvest is past, the summer is ended,
and we are not saved."
Jeremiah 8:20

The official end of summer is Sunday, September 21, so it is not too late to reap a harvest this summer. This past month, I reminded you that it was harvest time and encouraged all of you to find three people. It is not about numbers. It is about people. People who need a Savior. People who need a church home. People who need to be connected so that they can grow and thrive as disciples.
We need to lift up our eyes and see that the fields are white and ready to harvest. The problem is not that our city is hardened to the Gospel. The problem is that our hearts are hardened to prayer. The hindrance is not the wickedness of the wicked. It is the apathy of the saints. The issue is not the lack of a harvest. The issue is a lack of laborers. What can you do to solve this problem? Pray and go, expecting God to use you!

A Message from Pastor Scott

Welcome to Elmira Baptist Church! Founded through a revival in the 1950's, Elmira Baptist Church has been a beacon of hope to the communities of Elmira, Vacaville, Fairfield, Dixon, and beyond. What can you expect when you visit us?
Worship is central to all that we do. We do not "do church." We gather to worship a God Who is worthy. Worship is not about what we enjoy. Worship is about enjoying God. Congregational singing in which all participate in worship defines our meetings on Sunday.
Also, no church can thrive without prayer. Daily, personal prayer in our time with God as well as corporate prayer particularly on Wednesday evening. And not just giving God a shopping list of things we want; rather we pray in order to cooperate with what God is doing in our world. Our supplications are for God's grace in people's lives.
Once we have prayed, our goal is to evangelize our community where we live and the people whom we know. The Gospel is the good news that Jesus is the Savior of the world. That is not merely good news for Christians. It is good news for everyone.
And after a person is adopted as God's child, we do not wish to leave him there, immature and alone. Our plan is to make disciples. Our time together in community, fellowship, and serious study increases our desire to be disciples.
Our 2025 theme is rejoicing in the Lord. We will never find joy and happiness seeking our own priorities and pleasure. Only when we seek the Lord and prioritize worship, prayer, evangelism, and making disciples do we find that joy that God has intended for us.
We are rejoicing because with God's rich provision we are occupying the new building that we began working on a decade ago. At times, we thought we would never be done. We survived switching contractors, a pastor dying, a pandemic, and a couple of building code changes. Today, we rejoice that we are using the building. Nothing is impossible for God. We invite you to come join us in our new space.
