In addition to being the abbreviation for Bay Presbyterian Church, the letters “BPC” hold another cherished meaning for us: “Boldly Proclaiming Christ”! Various members of this church have joined, led and, in many cases, initiated Christ-centered ministries within the West Shore suburbs and far beyond. This “centered and sent” outlook is reflected in BPC’s current mission, vision and call statements:
THE MISSION
To Honor and Serve Jesus Christ the Living Lord By Calling People to a Commitment:
To Christ To The Body of Christ To The Work Of Christ In The World
THE VISION
We Are and We Are Seeking to Become, More Fully and Faithfully, an Inviting Church:
Centered On Christ Obedient to Christ Through The Scriptures Nurtured, Discipled, and Equipped for Ministry and Mission in Small Groups Gathered in Worship Scattered in Service and Witness
Sharing in a Mission That is Transforming Our Lives, Our Relationships, Our Community, Our City, Our Nation, and the World for All Eternity
THE CALL
Our call is to fulfill the Great Commission by raising up and partnering with congregations on the West Side of Cleveland who share in the passion of being Christ’s instrument of transformation in Northeastern Ohio.
In support of this mission, BPC has adopted three strategies:
-
To passionately express our love of God and commitment to be His instruments of transformation in Northeast Ohio;
-
To become a disciple-making community;
-
To become a partnering/planting church.
