"Our purpose is to love God and share that love by making, building, and equipping disciples of Jesus Christ here in Huntsville and throughout the world."

We believe everyone is in need of a Savior!

We believe the only way to heaven is through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ!
 
We believe we are secure in Christ - forever!

We believe God has given a strategy and mission for our lives through the church!

We believe water baptism and the Lord's Supper help us realize and remember what Christ has done for us.

We believe we are to carry forth the vision and direction God has given for the West Huntsville Baptist Church!

We believe the promise that Christ is coming again and that provides great hope and motivation to love and serve God with all of our hearts!

We believe we have a God whose desire is for no one to perish, but for all to come to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.  Our challenge is to commit ourselves, as individuals and as a church, to share with as many people as possible the good news of salvation.  The eternal destiny of people hangs in the balance!

 An educational wing (north) was added in 1963 during Bro. Sam Wolfe's ministry; that building was named for him at the Church's 90th Anniversary celebration.  The other educational wing (south) was built in 1980 during the ministry of Bro. Max Barton.  When this wing was dedicated it was named for J. Vernon Rich, pastor from 1926 - 1958.
 Through the years literally thousands have been saved and discipled at this Church.  God has blessed in an unusual way through the years.  Because of its location near Redstone Arsenal, the Church has ministered to people from all over the world, and has sent out missionaries and members to all parts of the world.
 Bro. Scott Gossett is the eighteenth pastor of the Church and has been used of God to guide the Church to be a "Worshiping Church" and a “Giving Church”. In 1992, the Lord impressed Bro. Scott that the Church should be debt free.  At that time $125,000.00   was still owed on the J. Vernon Rich educational wing.  That began a rain of blessing from God that is still falling.  The building debt was paid and the facilities got a much needed face lift.
 We believe in a bright future for this Church that is more glorious than the past.  We believe that God will continue to use this Church in the salvation of souls, in the edification of the saints and the spreading of the Gospel throughout the world.  We would like for you to become a part of this exciting ministry.
