Eight billion people on this earth -- and God gives every single one of them His full attention, all at the same time, all the time. That is not a small thing. That is the God we serve.

He is not waiting for you to slip up. He already sees it, and He already sees you come back. He told Peter, "When you return, strengthen the brethren" -- because He was outside of time, seeing the whole story at once. That is grace. That is a Father who runs toward you, not away.

Isaiah 40:28-31 reminds us that He never grows weary, never drops the ball, and promises to renew the strength of those who wait on Him. Whatever path you are on right now, He sees it -- and He is saying, come back over here.

He laid the foundations of the earth. He can handle what you are going through.

What is hindering your relationship with God? That was the question that appeared in Bible study workbook after workbook, year after year, with the same answer written in the margins. The Lord's message was clear: nothing had changed.

In this powerful message drawn from Galatians 5, Matthew 26, and Romans 6, we are reminded that the battle between flesh and Spirit is real, but the victory is already won. Jesus bore every burden, every anxiety, every struggle on the cross, buried it in the tomb, and walked away from it in resurrection power. Nothing came out of that grave with Him.

The evidence of a true encounter with Jesus Christ is change. Are you tired of repeating the same cycles? Come ready to be honest with God, hear His still small voice, and walk out of here different.

If there is one thing Bancroft Mission Church takes seriously, it is our rich history.

Since 1939, our Church has only continued to grow and evolve into the flourishing fellowship it is today. From a collection of 3 families in the back of a store, to a growing congregation today!

We stand on a strong foundation built by the faithful believers that came before us. We honor their time, talents, and treasures they poured into this Church by continuing to share the gospel and put Jesus at the forefront of everything we do!

If you have any old photos or history of our Church, please contact Chase Bailey or Blake Gibson. We will add them to our wonderful collection. If you see a familiar face, feel free to point them out! 🤍

We recently had a sit down with our greatly cherished Elder Frank Allen Jr. regarding the founding of the church and other associated stories. A big thank you to Adam Sigman for allowing us to be present on his podcast. This was an incredible privilege to be a part of and we are very excited to share this with you all.
