Welcome

     Welcome to our website!  We are Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church of Helena, AL.  We are a small church with a BIG heart!  We hope, in looking through our website, you get a taste of our heart’s desire to become all that God wants us to be-  a church who boldly professes our belief in and lifts up the powerful name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  You will find the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church family to be welcoming, friendly, loving and caring to each other and to those in the surrounding communities that we serve.   We extend a heartfelt welcome for you to come worship with us.  For those who may be relocating to the local area or if you are in search of a church home, we would love to have you be our guest for Sunday School and worship service.  If the Holy Spirit so moves you, come on in and become a part of our church family. 

     Yours in Christ -   Pastor Edwin Dinkins

  • Let Us Continue to Pray Without Ceasing, Especially During These Times..........

    Matthew 24:6-7 NKJV:

    "And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places".
