Family-Oriented Ministry & Programs

At Bausman Memorial United Church, families are at the heart of our mission. Generations come together in programs designed for all ages—nursery care for our littlest worshippers, interactive children’s lessons that make the Bible come alive, and youth activities that spark creativity and conversation. Parents appreciate the breadth of opportunities: from seasonal Vacation Bible School and summer outings to monthly intergenerational game nights. “Very family oriented, programs & activities for all ages,” one member shares, and many agree that the excitement on children’s faces each Sunday morning speaks volumes. Our family ministry not only nurtures faith in young hearts but also fosters friendships and support networks for parents and grandparents.

Faith-Driven Worship & Pastor Joe’s Leadership

Central to the spiritual life at Bausman Memorial is our Sunday worship, grounded in strong Biblical teaching and faith-filled messages. Under the thoughtful guidance of Pastor Joe, worship services resonate with authenticity and compassion.

Whether it’s officiating weddings, providing pastoral care in times of need, or walking alongside families through life’s celebrations and challenges, Pastor Joe’s leadership is a cornerstone of our community. His long-standing relationships—some spanning decades—illustrate a caring ministry that extends far beyond the pulpit.
