ABOUT US

     Baptist church or a church of like faith or order

3. What if I'm not sure yet? How can I get my questions and concerns answered? 
You may attend TBC4U to find out more about the church and what it means to be a member of Trinity Baptist. The class is held every Sunday at 9:00 am and is for new members and guests. It is held in the conference room located in the reception area of the education building, West End of the church. The facilitators are Phyllis and Randy Patterson. They are available to answer questions you may have. Also, you can schedule a meeting with any of your staff ministers to answer any questions or concerns you might have at 733-6201.

4. What do you teach about baptism? Would I have to be baptized again in order to be a member here? 
Baptism is a "promise made to God from a good conscience" (I Pet. 3:21). We urge all believers to be baptized (immersed) as a public demonstration of their desire to put their faith in Jesus. Those who have already been baptized before coming to Trinity Baptist don't need to be baptized again. For those who are not, we'd consider it a privilege to be a part of this important step. You may attend TBC4U to find out more about Baptism or you may contact John Park, Jr., Associate Pastor at 733-6201. 

5. Trinity Baptist is such a large church. What can I do to keep from being lost in the crowd? 
The best solution is to join one of our Bible Fellowship classes that meet every Sunday at 9:00 am. In addition, you can join our small groups meeting in homes all over San Antonio. These small groups provide opportunity for worship and fellowship in an environment where everyone knows your name. To learn about specific Bible Fellowship groups or home groups, you may call the Education Ministry Office at 738-7745. Another way to get connected would be to become involved in any our ministries.
