You’ve found the website of Maranatha Baptist Church
of Lansing, Michigan. Please enjoy a warm and friendly welcome
as you step inside our doors. You'll never find a more loving
friendly church where the people love the Lord, each other and
new visitors.
We are conservative in music and practices, yet we strive
to meet the contemporary needs of each individual through the
clear preaching and teaching of God's Word. We love the Lord
Jesus and want to serve Him with all of our hearts. We want to
teach and assist parents in the raising of Godly families.
We want to share the good news of Jesus' death, burial and
resurrections with everyone in the Lansing area and around the
world. Missions are therefore, a great part of our ministry
emphasis. We believe the Lansing area is the beginning of our
mission field and from there we want to reach to the ends of
the earth. We support more than thirty five missionary
families and works.
Fellowship and friendship are important keys to Christian
growth. Interaction in both casual and formal settings is
needed to help each Christian in using his or her spiritual
gifts. Edification is an important part of our relationships.
Opportunities for men to meet together and to encourage one
another are provided and encouraged. Ladies meet also in Bible
studies and times of fellowship. We have several adult classes
on Sunday morning to choose from.
Our young people have Sunday morning classes before the
worship service and a Wednesday night program called Awana.
There they are provided with opportunities to learn the Word
of God and have fun in games and competition.
Teen outreach and Bible study is on Monday nights. We are
very proud of the cultural diversity reflected in our church
congregation. This is especially evident in our young people
as they combine in unity around the saving blood of Jesus
Christ. Following the Bible study, they enjoy athletic
competition and fellowship.
If you live in Lansing or are visiting the Lansing area
come and see us at Maranatha Baptist Church. In Lansing we are
here to encourage you, teach you, pray for you, and to be our
friend in the faith. We want to be Lansing's friendliest
church.
God bless you as you seek to find God's place for you.
