What We Believe
Pembina Valley Baptist Church is an independent Baptist church dedicated to glorifying God in every aspect of our lives and ministry. Since our charter in February 1989, the Bible, God's holy Word, has been our unwavering Guide for faith and practice. Everything we believe and the principles we live by are firmly founded in Its teachings. We hold fast to distinct Baptist principles, emphasizing the importance of Scripture, the autonomy of the local church, the priesthood of all believers, and the separation of church and state. These distinctives shape our worship, our outreach, and our commitment to sharing the Gospel.
