Timberline Baptist Church has a fun, exciting and inspirational family ministry:

Family Development -- Sermon content from the pulpit is geared to the specific needs of the church family. Sometimes that includes preaching on the family, child rearing, discipline, education, and etc. The pastor is available for counselling as the need arises.

Youth Department -- Timberline Baptist Church is in the process of building a strong youth department. Pastor Parton was a youth pastor for 8 1/2 years and served as an assistant pastor working with youth related ministries for a total of 11 years before becoming the pastor of Timberline Baptist Church. He serves as the pastor as well as the youth director! (The best of both worlds!)

Timberline Baptist Academy -- Timberline Baptist Academy is an educational ministry of TBC. Curriculum: Landmark's Freedom Baptist Curriculum, A Beka reading in the lower grades, Saxon Math, and Bible. Scripture memorization is heavily emphasized. K-12 is available. TBA is currently using this curriculum in a home-school setting.

Mother/Daughter Tea -- Our ladies have a Tea each year just before Mothers' Day. Instead of having a banquet, we have a Tea/Luncheon with special things for mothers and daughters. There is always a special speaker including the pastor's wife.

Father/Son Cookouts/Campouts -- Guys don't do banquets like ladies do! We have a giant cookout or campout every year before Fathers' Day. Steak, chicken, beans, slaw, pies, cakes, (just "guy" food) No bird food here!

Bus Picnics -- Our bus families are special and we like to have picnics for them. The church provides the food and the kids provide the excitement! Always well organized and supervised.
