Arlington Baptist Church is a young church plant in the heart of Arlington, South Dakota. We believe Scripture changes lives, so our gatherings are simple and Scripture-centered; we worship, pray, and open the Bible together without added liturgies or ‘traditions’. If you’re seeking direction from God’s Word and a church family to worship with, you’ll find a home here. Whether you’re continuing to mature in Christ or starting to ask the most basic questions about knowing God, you’re welcome. Come grow with us.

Our Vision

To be a Christ-centered, Bible-preaching church that reaches our community and beyond with the love and truth of God, while encouraging people to grow in their walk with the Lord honoring Him in daily life.

Our Purpose

Everything we do at Arlington Baptist Church aims to uplift and magnify the name of Jesus Christ. We believe the best way to do this is by:

Worshipping

in Spirit and Truth; it is a state of the heart and a way of living that recognizes and responds to the glory and sovereignty of God. 
(John 4:24)

Proclaiming

the Gospel of Jesus Christ in efforts to evangelize the unconverted
(Mark 16:15)

Educating

new believers and edifying established Saints through Biblical teaching and preaching
(Matthew 28:19-20)

Building

and establishing other independent Baptist churches locally and through giving of missions
(Acts 1:8)

Enriching

our community by declaring the light of truth and providing support through benevolent service, ministering to the “least of these
(Matthew 25:45; James 2:15-16)
