Welcome to Greenwood
At Greenwood Baptist Church our vision is to raise up a generation of passionate disciples of Jesus Christ dedicated to proclaiming the gospel for the glory of God.
Psalm 122:1 "I was glad when they said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the Lord!'”

Update: Effective July 24, 2020, the Medical Officer of Health has mandated the wearing of face masks in enclosed indoor spaces, including places of worship.
Unless you have a qualifying exemption we ask that you honour this order made under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act. We will have disposable masks available at the check-in table.
Exemptions:
a) children under the age of two years; or children under the age of five years either by birth age or mental development who refuse to wear a face covering and cannot be persuaded to do so by their caregiver;
b) individuals who are unable to remove their face covering without assistance under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) or who have protections under the Ontario Human Rights Code, R.S.O 1990, c.H.19, as amended;
c) individuals whose breathing would be inhibited by wearing a face covering;
d) individuals with medical conditions rendering them unable to safely wear a face covering, including. but not limited to respiratory disease, cognitive difficulties or difficulties in hearing or processing information;
e) religious officiants on the platform six feet from attendees
f) volunteers in an area that is not designated for public access where physical distancing of two metres can be maintained, performing duties behind a physical barrier where physical distancing can be maintained or where they are with members of their household/social circle.
Indoor services remain limited to 30% of capacity, while outdoor services can have up to 100 people in attendance.
Weather depending we plan to hold our services outside for the remainder of the summer.
Please take note:
We are required to observe the six feet physical distancing rules set out by public health authorities. We recognize that this limits how close we can be and restricts some of our regular programs, but are thankful that we can meet together to worship God.
