Goals & Objectives

As members of the Prairie Winds Baptist Church family, it is our desire to grow toward the fulfillment of these goals and objectives.

"By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another." John 13:35

1. A Spirit of humility in our lives and in ministry

"God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble." James 4:6
​"Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." I Corinthians 10:12
2. A spirit of cooperation with one another with an attitude of "can do" problem solving
"Submitting yourselves on to another in the fear of God." Ephesians 5:21
​"Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves." Philippians 2:3

3. The good treatment of everyone by everyone

"Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another." Romans 12:10
​"And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." Ephesians 4:32
4. A spirit of genuineness and transparency with one another
"Let love be without dissimulation." (hypocrisy) Romans 12:9
​"But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy." James 3:17
5. To communicate honestly, clearly and often with one another
"But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ." Ephesians 4:25
​"Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another." Ephesians 4:25
