PURPOSE (Why we exist)
Bishopville Presbyterian's purpose is to glorify God—to make Him recognizable through us— that others might come to believe on Him.
Matthew 5:13-14
13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
VISION STATEMENT (What we value)
to go and make disciples of all people in Bishopville and into the world in obedience to Jesus Christ's commands.
Matthew 28:18-20
...18 “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Acts 1:8 "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
MISSION STATEMENT (What we do)
making disciples, sharing the Gospel, serving others
Matthew 9:37-38

We are very excited to offer a Sunday school class for our Younger Adults (20+)
With the leadership of Pastor Parnell and many young members of the church, we will discuss and analyze topics and issues pertinent to Younger Adults, such as: marriage, parenthood, work/life balance, and study the Word through various lenses and mediums for practical application in today's ever evolving world.
In addition, we will have monthly dinners, outside of the Church, to encourage others in the community to witness the power of the Word in a more relaxed and recognizable venue. We would love to have you join us!
