Phillips Church's riveting Gethsemane window depicts Jesus agonizing over his approaching physical pain, separation from the Father and death for the sins of the world. The divine course was set, but he, in his human nature, still struggled. Because of the anguish Jesus experienced, he can relate to our suffering.
This stained glass window is in the alcove behind the altar and above the baptistry at Phillips Church.
The purpose of Phillips Memorial Baptist Church is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, to encourage continued individual growth in Christian living, and to extend a cooperative ministry to each other and to the community.
Believers Baptism
Phillips Church, following the teachings and the example of Jesus Christ, practices the immersion of those who have come to faith in God through Jesus Christ. Baptism is an outward sign of his inward reality. Baptism symbolizes one’s belief in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus for the forgiveness of sin and the newness of life.
We welcome those interested in being baptized. To discuss baptism, call the Church Office at 401-467-3300, extension 1.
