Cherryville Baptist Church

We are excited what God is doing with us, and we extend an invitation to you to join us as the Body of Christ gathered here.

"The purpose of this church shall be the advancement of The Church of Jesus Christ. It shall seek to obtain this through public worship of God; the preaching of the Gospel, consistent Christian living by its members, personal evangelism, missionary endeavor and Christian education."

The Cherryville Baptist Church was founded in 1849. Since that time the Good News of Jesus Christ has been the center of our life together. We submit ourselves to the authority of the Bible. In all of our worship, study, and fellowship activities we seek to lift up Jesus Christ, and to live out His commandment that we love one another. We are a family of faith, and we covenant together to rejoice with those who rejoice, and to bear one another's burdens. We seek to worship God in Spirit and in Truth, as we share God's love by baptizing and teaching in Jesus'.

Welcome to Sunday School

Jesus came to Earth to make God known, and here Jesus, the Son of God, is reaching out to people like you and me, inviting us to get to know Him, to follow Him. He wants a relationship with us. And one of the best ways to take that first step to knowing God is through our Sunday morning worship service.

We meet Sundays at 10:00am to sing, pray, and study God’s Word. All are welcome!

You are invited to our Men's Ministry

We are a group of men working to grow in our faith, discover our purpose, and make a difference. We lean on, and learn from, each other as we work to deepen out relationship with God. We take a shared leadership approach, where each man may lead for a week, for a study, or not at all, depending upon his comfort level. We decide on studies as a group, and they range from video series, to book studies, to Bible studies. We are open to ideas and suggestions as we work to increase our faith, knowledge, and understanding of God's calling on our lives.

We are in search of a new Pastor

We are looking to fill the full-time position of Pastor at Cherryville Baptist Church (founded in 1849) in the heart of Hunterdon County. A small country church in a pastoral setting with roughly 50-80 people in attendance weekly. We are looking for a Pastor led to our congregation by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and God’s guiding hand. Most importantly, the Pastor is someone who, as a disciple of Jesus Christ, will lead others in embracing the life-transforming Lordship of our crucified and risen Savior. The Pastor will lead our congregational ministry, guiding and teaching in line with Biblical truth, our doctrine, and the church covenant. We are interested in an educated, spiritually-guided leader who fits the qualifications as described in Titus and First Timothy. The position as Cherryville Baptist Church’s Pastor would include weekly sermons, teaching Sunday School, Bible Studies, prayer meetings, special sermons (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Lent, Holy Week, Easter, etc.), guiding our Deacons, Trustees, and other board positions, as well as special needs of the congregation such as pre-marital counselling, weddings, funerals, individual visitation, and spiritual care. We do have a Music Director who would love if our new Pastor were musically inclined, but it is not a requirement.
The congregation of Cherryville Baptist Church is strongly devoted to the study of scripture and the commission of evangelism and missions. While not always quick to volunteer in advance, our members do not leave needs unmet. A Pastor coming to our congregation should be aware of our members' love of the Lord and the history of our church. In these times of national and social change, our members stand firm in the triune God who reveals himself through His Word as Creator, Savior, and Advocate; and who desires us to share His love and glory with all around us. We are called to be in this world, but not of it; to set an example to Christians and non-Christians alike to live in line with Biblical teachings.
Salary and benefits will be negotiated commensurate with experience and education. The use of the church parsonage is a huge benefit for a Pastor with a younger family or just looking for the ease of walking to church on Sunday mornings. Please complete the following form.
