Welcome
You might know us as “that big white church” on Plympton St/Route 105.

Home is where discipleship begins. Christian parents have a calling to teach and guide their children in the faith—and yet many parents are not sure where to start or how to sustain discipleship when schedules get busy, challenges change, and children grow into teenagers and young adults.
Friday, November 7 — Evening Session, 6:45 pm to 8:00 pm — “Training Children in the Way of Christ” with Matt Carpenter
Saturday, November 8 — Morning Session, 8:45 am to 12 noon — “Creating a Family Culture of Discipleship” with Heatherly Sylvia
Join us as we discuss:
How the Great Commission begins at home.
Why Godly leadership is not as complicated as we think.
How a strong marriage is the foundation for faith-filled children.
What does it mean to build a culture?
How do you handle the teenage years?

Tuesdays, 6:00 - 7:30 pm
Calling all kids in grades 1-5 to Pilgrim Club, a Bible study and social hangout just for kids.
This year, we are reading “Pilgrim’s Progress,” Paul Bunyan’s famous allegorical story about a man named Christian and the epic journey he takes to Heaven.
At Pilgrim Club, kids will hear the story of Christian, play active games, do crafts and hands-on projects, and build friendships.

Sundays, 6:00 to 8:00 pm
Students in grades 6 to 12 are invited to a weekly evening of fellowship, mentorship, and Bible study.
Together, we study God’s word, talk openly, and have a lot of fun (i.e. food, games, camp retreats, all-nighters, and special traditions).
All are welcome.

Mondays, 7:00 to 8:00 pm

Mondays, 7:00 to 8:00 pm

Thursdays - 8:00 am Personal Prayer; 9:00 am Prayer led by Pastor Matt
Prayer was an anchor of Jesus’ life and ministry, and following His example, it should be the foundation of ours.

FAQs
-
Our church follows the Reformed Protestant tradition. In simple terms, this means that we believe that people are saved by faith alone in God alone by grace alone. We believe that people are sinners, but that by acknowledging this reality and by turning to God for forgiveness, we can experience true personal and spiritual freedom.

Our pastor, Matt Carpenter, was called to Middleboro in November 2024. He was born and raised in northern Alabama, where his father was a Southern Baptist pastor.
After graduating with a degree in education, Matt taught history, American government, and economics for fifteen years and was ordained to preach when he was twenty-four.
Matt served as a Baptist pastor for seven years and later served in the same capacity at a couple of Presbyterian churches for six years.
Matt and his wife Amanda have four children: Phoebe, Simeon, Emma, and Olivia. Their family enjoys reading together, as well as hiking, music, and cooking.
Some of his favorite authors are C.S. Lewis, P.G. Wodehouse, Russell Kirk, Wendell Berry, Robert Capon, James Herriot, St. Augustine, and M.R. James.
