For our first-time visitors
Below is some helpful information to make your first visit to Madison Street Baptist Church pleasant and less confusing. Our campus has recently expanded with the opening of our new Family Life Center. The Family Life Center is the new home for our KidsQuest Children's Worship, The Ark Nursery, adult Sunday School classes and so much more. Having this new buidling has resulted in the shifting of many classes to different buildings. For example, the old preschool building is now known as the Adult Education Building. And the former children's building is now the High School Buidling.
To help you navigate our campus, we have a map you can download by clicking here.
The map is an Acrobat PDF document and you will need Acrobat Reader to view it. If you do not have Acrobat Reader, you can download it for free here.
Once you have downloaded the map, please visit the Sunday School Classes page. This page will give you all of the Sunday School classes available and what room they are located in. You can then use the map to navigate to the appropriate class. As always, if any of this becomes overwhelming once you've arrived on our campus, we have greeters who are waiting to help you find your way or answer any of your questions.
What to expect upon your arrival
First, we consider it an honor for you to have chosen Madison Street. We realize you could have chosen from a number of churches in our area, and we thank you for choosing us.
Our visitors have special designated parking close to the Worship Center building. A member of our Parking Ministry will be able to direct you to that parking area.
We have ample spaces for both handicapped and non-handicapped individuals. If you have children that will be kept in our nursery, or participating in our KidsQuest children's worship hour, we recommend that you park in the lot at the entrance to the Family Life Center, located at the south end of our campus. We also recommend that you arrive at least 20 minutes before the worship service begins. Our nursery is equipped with state-of-the-art security features, which require us to gather information from you before your child/children will be taken in. Arriving early will ensure that your child/children get checked into the nursery while allowing you ample time to find your way to the Worship Center.
Upon arriving on our campus, you will be greeted by a warm and friendly member of our Greeter Ministry. We have one of these individuals placed at each of the three entrances into the Worship Center, as well as at the entrance to the Family Life Center. This person will be able to answer any questions you may have, such as the locations of a particular Sunday School class or where a convenient restroom may be located. They also can help you with your map if you've chosen to download it before your visit with us.
Worship
With the opening of our new Family Life Center, we are now able to worship in one morning service at 9 AM. We earnestly and humbley seek the face of the Lord in our praise and worship through song, biblical preaching and teaching, and in giving. Come prepared to receive a fresh touch from God upon your life.
Sunday School Classes
We offer a Sunday School class for a wide variety of individuals, including married couples, single adults and college age, senior adults, as well as students and children. The Sunday School hour begins at 10:30 AM following the worship service. Please check with one of our greeters to see where your class will be meeting. You can also call our church office ahead of time at 904.964.7557, send your question via e-mail to info@madisonstreet.org, or visit the Sunday School Classes page here on our site.
Before you leave
We would like to extend an invitation to you to our Pastor's Reception immediately following the worship service. Our senior pastor, Dr. Chad Everson, looks forward to personally meeting you and/or your family to thank you for being in our worship service as well as getting to know a little more about you.
And we'd thank you for taking the time to find our more about us. If you have any questions before your visit, please feel free to contact our church office at 904.964.7557, or by e-mail at info@madisonstreet.org. If you need directions, be sure to visit our Directions page.
