Music MinistryPraising the Lord Through Music
The Adult Choir Our Choir is dedicated to singing songs that honor and glorify the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The Adult Choir sings in the Sunday morning and evening worship services. Youth Choir We believe what the Bible says, "Children are an heritage of the Lord." At Holt's Baptist, we believe our children should also be involved in the music ministry in our worship services. We work hard to provide songs that excite the children, while providing a clear Gospel message. Nursery We believe it's never to early to start including our children in the service of the Lord. By beginning when they are young, singing and praising God becomes a natural part of their lives as they grow older.

Our friendly greeters will warmly welcome you and help you find a class that best fits you where you are. Bible Study Bible study at Holt's Baptist Church is foundational to the character of the church. Through our Bible studies, members are able to relate personally to one another and grow closer to God. The studies are taught by members of the church who are dedicated to the Bible as God’s Word and to faithful and accurate interpretation of truth to all ages in the church. Holt's Baptist offers Bible studies on Sunday morning(Sunday School) at 9:35 a.m. and Sunday night at 6:00 p.m. for nursery through adults. The Sunday morning and Sunday night Bible studies are organized essentially by age/grade level, although there are classes that are multi-aged and cross-generational in composition. Each Bible study group has the tasks of teaching the Bible accurately, developing the participants in their relationships with one another and God, and reaching other people with the gospel message. The biblical model we follow is expressed in Acts 2. The church understands its tasks to be worship, serving, instructing and evangelizing in the church and community. |
VBS (Vacation Bible School)Vacation Bible School started out as a simple week of Bible training for children that has become themed and live interactive learning. People in the community may see it as a chance for free babysitting, but we have been given the directive to provide substantive and truthful answers to little minds that inquire, and the sobering reality is that we are accountable for every moment given and every resource afforded.
VBS IS NOT… entertainment.VBS is about revealing God to children, not 5 days of entertainment. VBS IS… an opportunity to reveal God. Deuteronomy 29:29 says that “the secret things belong to God but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children…”e. VBS IS NOT… just a theme. Every VBS comes with an overarching theme. This helps bring continuity to each day, teaching, and activity. But the point of a VBS theme is to build a bridge to sharing the Gospel with your kids. VBS IS… an opportunity to present the Gospel. Matthew 19:14 says, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Children love to ask questions, and the more they learn, the more they desire to learn. VBS IS… an opportunity for children to memorize Scripture. Only good things can come from hiding God’s Word in these little hearts. The Bible teaches that His word protects against sin and provides the moral compass to guard against destructive habits (Psalm 119:1,11). VBS IS… an opportunity to lay a foundation of truth. VBS IS NOT… about showing how well we can decorate, organize games or perform skits. VBS is all about reaching children with the Good News of Jesus Christ. VBS IS… outreach to children. There should always be a clear intent to share the Word of God to our children and make impacts in their lives. VBS IS… outreach to parents. Keep the parents involved; and this isn’t just about utilizing skills, gifts and abilities either. It is about encouraging them in their call to be ministers in their children’s lives. To encourage parents to reinforce the biblical truths presented throughout the week. VBS IS… an opportunity to teach ministry. Here’s where you help kids convert the things they learned about God into good practical use; it’s the “How to be God’s hands and feet” portion of the week. Help them realize a greater understanding and appreciation of what others are going through to open their eyes to act in compassion and love. VBS IS… an opportunity to demonstrate Christian life. VBS IS… an opportunity to build relationships. Fellowship is as important for the little guys as it is for us. It is in childhood that many habits are formed, both good and bad. Teach them to contribute to each other’s lives, to encourage each other, and to help each other grow. VBS week is a great time for teachers and leaders to form friendships, too! VBS IS NOT… a 5-day lecture. While teaching is an important part of VBS, so is the reality of what you are teaching. If you are teaching your kids about the joy of the Gospel, then that joy should be evident throughout VBS week. If you are discussing the excitement of following God, then that excitement should permeate every game, craft and activity. Instead of a theological lecture, VBS should be an interactive and immersive event where the Gospel is taught and experienced. VBS IS… a great time for fun. Children learn best by actively doing, versus just sitting and listening the whole time, especially if the activity is fun. Put extra care into creating an environment where kids can enjoy learning and making life applications. Whether you use games, puzzles, acting out stories, dressing up, or singing relevant songs to reinforce the lessons, the experience will be more memorable when there is participation and interaction. And the leaders should have fun, too! Joy is contagious and it’s a great way to let the kids know you love God and love ministering to them. |
