Sierra Vista Baptist Church

The Pastor’s cell phone is listed online so I gave it a ring really late on a Sunday night. I left a voice mail with name, number, and time zone. That’s it. About 5 mins later, I got a return call from… a woman! She identified herself as the Pastor. Then, I explained an upsetting, negative situation. The Pastor was cool-​headed the whole time. She said she didn’t know anyone in her congregation by the name I gave and that I must have the wrong Baptist church. She suggested I call the other one. Then she offered to pray for the situation.
I am so impressed this Pastor: 1. Has her cell listed online for use by the public at large in case of emergencies 2. Knows her congregation so well that she knows them by name and 3. Offered to pray for my situation and people involved.
This experience was in stark contrast to the other Baptist church I’m having issues with right now. In addition to said issue, that church doesn’t have a cell phone listed online for the public. I think the structure of the outreach provided by SVBC lays bare their philosophy on Christianity.
