Ministries
Nursery
"Suffer little children, and forbid them not to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven."
~ Matt 19:14
Just as we must come as a child with no deeds of our own and accept the free gift of Christ’s salvation for our wickedness and sin, so we must care for and nurture our little ones in salvation and discipleship.
To insure that the services are disruption free, we offer three beautiful nursery facilities. Newborns through age 4 years have dedicated care workers who will carefully watch over their every need. Our ushers will gladly show you to the Nursery.
Elmwood Baptist Church has well-staffed, loving nurseries, beautifully decorated and supplied for your children. Parents may enjoy the services, knowing their children are being well cared for.

Teens Ministry
“My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.” ~ Prov 1:8-9
Of all the times to receive knowledge and instructions in the way of God, the teenage years are among the most important. As the world continues to develop the complexity of its charms to dissuade youths from wisdom and doeth the path of a fool, Elmwood Baptist works to lovingly instruct teens in God’s absolute truth, the Bible.
Our youth (6th-8th grades) and teenagers (9th-12th grades) meet during Sunday Family Bible Time at 10:45 am for Sunday school after the Sunday morning worship service and also Thursday Youth & Teen Time at 7:00 pm at the same time as the regular Thursday service.

G.A.T.E. Outreach Ministry
“And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ” ~ Acts 5:42
G.A.T.E. (Gospel Awareness to Everyone)
An outreach ministry of Elmwood in which every member, young and old, has the ability to be involved and get the Gospel of Jesus Christ to every house in our ministry area.
As part of the great commission to make disciples of all nations we meet every Saturday at 10:30 am to go out and share Christ with the community and invite our neighbors in Brighton, Colorado to visit our Church. While many churches have an outreach ministry, few have developed such an in depth ministry. The following is a brief synopsis of this ministry. By putting the information on our website, our prayer is other churches can glean from this information and develop a well-rounded outreach ministry for their community as well.
Missions
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” ~ Matt 28:19
Elmwood Baptist Church supports over 40 missionary Church Planters and their families within the United States and around the globe. We believe God’s Word teaches that we are to reach our Jerusalem (for us that is Brighton, CO), Judea (for us that is Colorado), Samaria (for us that is the United States), and the uttermost parts of the earth.
Following the great commission to spread the gospel, calling all men to Christ, baptizing them, and making disciples to the duty of every born-again believer. As part of our answer to this call, Elmwood supports the following churches and ministries through prayer and financial means.
