Associations

WEST VIRGINIA BAPTIST CONVENTION

Goshen Baptist Church is a member of the regional/local Goshen Association, which is a member of the state West Virginia Baptist Convention (WVBC). Goshen Baptist Church regularly meets with the other member churches to work together to provide services and support to fellow churches and their congregations. There are over 20 other Baptist associations throughout West Virginia who work together to provide services and support to their own churches under the WVBC umbrella. By working together for the WVBC the mission of the Convention as stated on their website, “Our mission is to empower local churches to be Christ­honoring communities of faith, and to help them fulfill their mission by enabling them to do together what they cannot do alone,” is fulfilled.

Goshen Baptist Church works closely with the WVBC in many Christian endeavors, including supporting Camp Cowen and Parchment Valley West Virginia Baptist Conference Center “Where Lives are Changed.” Visit the WVBC website for additional information.

Our Church Building

A BEACON OF THE LOVE OF CHRIST

For 180 years, Goshen Baptist Church has stood as a beacon of the love of our Savior Jesus Christ, not because of the physical building and its heritage, but because of the courage, dedication and commitment of those who have worshipped and served within its walls. It has survived because of its faithfulness to the Word of God and its commitment to the great commission: “Go then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples; baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And remember! I will be with you always, to the end of the age.” –Matthew 28:19-20 (Good News)
