About Bat Cave

We believe our purpose to be as follows: "To worship God the Father and Jesus Christ His Son through the the Holy Spirit. To educate disciples in His ways by His Word; to fellowship with one another in the church; to witness to a lost world in the power of the Holy Spirit; and to be actively involved in ministry at home and across the world."

Bat Cave Baptist church was organized in 1892 after a two-week revival in the community resulted in many professions of faith. Several Christians felt called of God to begin a Sunday School in the community and from this desire a church was constituted. The

Bat Cave community has been consistently blessed by God's children throughout the years!
