New to Area and Desperatly Missing Church, Looking for a Diverse Baptist Church

I've found that with Baptist churches the larger the congregation, the better your chances for diversity. Also, larger churches tend to have better youth programs. However, I've also noticed that churches of all kinds tend to be racially divided. The largest Baptist church in D/FW is Prestonwood in west Plano.

I love c|Life Church in Forney and they are about to have a location in Mesquite starting in Septemeber. Go on clifec.com and listen to some of the sermons! God has blessed this church in amazing ways! My family LOVES it!

I second Prestonwood Baptist. My children go there and the nursery and bible school classes are fabulous. My son also attend their school as well. I can't say enough wonderful things about that church. If you ever want try them, message me and I would more than happy to show you around. All the best,

I too recommend Lakepointe Church. We used to attend the main campus in Rockwall, but now attend the services at the Firewhell campus off of Murphy Road. The website for Lakepointe is www.lakepointe.org. Good luck in your search!

I go to The heights off 75 and Renner and we love it. It is large but not to big and every Sunday they have 2 services plus a special service in Spanish. We do a ton of outreach events with Some of the poor schools in Richardson, and alot of those families have ended up coming on Sundays. I think you would really like it.

You might want to try Gospel Lighthouse in Dallas. We are a Spirit-filled, diverse, multigenerational, united Family. You can check out the website at

Lakepointe Rockwall is great but if you live in Garland you may prefer the Lakepointe Firewheel campus on the corner of Campbell and Murphy Rd.
It's a satellite campus to the Rockwall location and there's also one in Mesquite that's Lakepointe Town East. And attend TE campus and love it.

Have you tried Prestonwood Baptist? It's a big church but lots of things to get plugged into. Check out their website. Google it. I was Very moved and impressed with their single mom's retreat they had this past weekend. Hope this helps and God Bless

Have you tried Lakepointe in Rockwall? It's large and a Baptist based. The worship is very passionate and I've been very pleased with the youth programs over the years. I've been a member there for 10 years and have really loved it.

You might try Wilshire Baptist on Mockingbird/Abrams in Dallas. Park Cities Baptist on Preston and Northwest Hwy is another option, although it is very very large. They have a spanish speaking ministry there that gives it some diversity.

I can't be too helpful since I'm Catholic, but I know that Irving Bible Church is really good. I think they're non-denom, not Baptist, but they have a ton of really good ministries and are very good about reaching out to the community.

Hope you find the right church home for you. And welcome to the area!
