Long Branch Baptist Church

Come and join us in the heart of the country. A small church on a county road near Savannah, Missouri — sharing the gospel, growing faithful disciples, and preaching the Bible without compromise.

Newly chartered

By God's grace,

Organized August 16, 2026

Long Branch Baptist Church is now a chartered, independent New Testament Baptist church. The charter was granted under the authority of New Life Baptist Church of Garnett, Kansas, and signed by our founding members at the front of the auditorium.

The building is old and the field across the road is planted in corn. What happened here is not new either — a group of believers covenanting together to be a New Testament church.

A note from our pastor

My prayer is that Long Branch Baptist Church will be a place where you and your family can hear the truth of God's Word, be encouraged by a caring church family, and be equipped to serve the Lord and make an eternal difference.

In Christ, Pastor Nick Brown

Pastor Nick Brown serves Long Branch Baptist Church alongside his wife, Mrs. Sam Brown. The Lord has blessed them with five children — Abram, Elias, Harper, Judson, and Caroline.

For your children

A safe, loving place for kids to learn about Jesus.

Nursery every service, Sunday School every Sunday morning, and a Kids Bible Night once a month. We pray Long Branch is a place your whole family can grow in the Lord.

Every service

Nursery

A safe, clean, caring room for our littlest ones. Loving volunteers care for each child so parents can enjoy the service knowing their babies are in good hands. We believe even the nursery can build a foundation of God's love from the very start.

Sunday School

Kids enjoy engaging Bible lessons, fun visuals, songs, games, prizes, and a challenge to grow in God's Word each week. Our goal is for children to build a strong and lasting faith. Teens and adults meet in a combined class.

Kids Bible Night

A special night for children to hear the gospel and grow in God's Word. Led by Pastor Brown, each night includes a Bible lesson, songs, games, prizes, and engaging visuals — plus gospel illusions that help children understand biblical truth in a way they remember.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Romans 10:17
