About our Church

The Congregation

Pleasant Hill Baptist Church is a loving, caring, friendly, genuine, and welcoming congregation. It has a diverse generational mix. Many of our members have been faithfully attending worship and serving together for three or four decades. Through all of the ups and downs, many deep bonds have been formed. Many of our active families include multiple generations that have considered Pleasant Hill to be their home for many years. However, we also have a growing and vibrant population in the church that consists of new families that are actively planting roots and becoming an integral part of Pleasant Hill. We have had the opportunity to engage with new prospects almost every Sunday for the past two years. Many of these families have recently joined the church.

Pleasant Hill is well-known for facilitating deep and meaningful relationships among the members. The congregation thrives in a close-knit, family-oriented approach to ministry. The church’s foundation is upon the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Word of God, and a commitment to live in authentic Biblical community. Everything we seek to do is based in those realities, including our preaching, teaching, worship, discipleship, mission endeavors, and fellowship opportunities. It is a great place to call home.

Physical Location

The church sits on about 50 acres, conveniently located in a growing area of South Tyler. It is a significantly populated area with close proximity to great schools, housing, shopping, dining, and recreation. The church facilities include a worship center, newly renovated children’s building/nursery, classroom space, fellowship space, office space, and a gym.

Church Size

The church is a well-established, financially secure, cooperative body that is well poised to have a bright future of faithfulness and vitality. Pleasant Hill is comprised of approximately 400+ active members. Pre-covid, our weekly worship attendance was approximately 300. Our current weekly worship attendance is approximately 185, with 160 in weekly Bible study groups. The past three months we have had an average of 35 children (birth to 6th grade) on Sunday mornings and about 25 on Wednesday nights. We maintain an annual budget of approximately $1 million.

Current Staff

The church staff currently consists of 3 full-time pastoral ministers, a full-time business administrator, a full-time ministry assistant, and multiple key part-time positions.

Church Governance

The church falls exclusively under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Practically speaking, the church is congregationally governed, staff led, committee approved, and deacon served.
