OUR MISSION.
TO HELP PEOPLE...
COME TO CHRIST.
The Great Commission.
To "Come to Christ" is deeply rooted in the core beliefs of professing faith in Christ through the sacred act of water baptism and surrendering to the transformative power of salvation. This mission aligns with the Great Commission as outlined in Matthew 28:18-20, where Jesus commands His followers to make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to observe all that He has commanded. By embracing these principles, Bay Harbour seeks to fulfill this divine mandate, guiding individuals on their spiritual journey towards a deeper relationship with Christ and a commitment to living out His teachings in their daily lives.
