There are currently 36 Greenville-area churches on our list of fundamental church ministries. These larger churches, which are pastored by BJU grads, include Morningside Baptist, Calvary Baptist, Hampton Park Baptist, Heritage Bible, Faith Baptist, and Mt. Calvary Baptist. Our students and staff help fill these churches on Sunday evenings. Many churches send buses or vans to campus to transport students to church.
Many students go to churches in their own cars.
In addition, many students travel into Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina, and occasionally beyond in church ministries during the weekend. Some faculty and staff members pastor their own churches. Various BJU administrators are heavily involved in the work of their local churches. Dr. Bob Taylor, dean of the College of Arts and Science, Dr. Jim Deuink, dean of the School of Education, and Dr. Dick Stratton, dean of the School of Business Administration, all serve on the board of Hampton Park Baptist Church. Mr. David Christ, director of Admissions, is music director at Hampton Park.
