The Lord Jesus Christ said, “I will build my church” (Matthew 16:18), and He has been doing that in Brunswick, Maine!



A BIBLICAL BAPTIST CHURCH IN BRUNSWICK, MAINE

Mid-Coast Baptist Church was founded in 1999 through the ministry of church planter, Bob Mitchell, Sr., and his son, Pastor Bobby Mitchell. As co-founders of the church, they have worked together in the role of co-pastors. The summer of 2006, Pastor Mitchell, Sr. and Pastor Tom Bromwell were sent to South Portland, Maine, to start Heritage Baptist Church, another independent Baptist church of like faith and practice. Pastor Bobby Mitchell continues to serve as pastor of Mid-Coast Baptist Church.

The Mitchells were sent to Brunswick by the Valley Baptist Church of Edinburg, Virginia, and it has been their desire to see the Mid-Coast Baptist Church grow and eventually become a base for sending men throughout northern New England to plant Bible-believing Baptist churches. Pastors Bob and Bobby Mitchell are presently training certain men of Mid-Coast Baptist Church to be sent forth by the church to accomplish this goal.

Mid-Coast Baptist Church is meeting in a building which they lease, but, due to the good blessings of the Lord, the church has grown and is in need of building its own facility to meet in. The church is in the process of aquiring a three-acre parcel of land in Brunswick on which to erect a building for the Lord's glory and the church's ministries.

God has wonderfully blessed this young church, and we praise Him and thank Him continually for that which He has been accomplishing. After all, “Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it” (Psalm 127:1 ).

We view this church, and every New Testament church, as an institution of divine habitation, divine ownership, and divine truth. It is “the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).
