About Woodville Baptist Church
Woodville was established June 24, 1959 and is Independent Baptist in denomination.
We believe that God should be the center of one's life, and worship is where we anticipate the presence of God and celebrate the good news of Jesus Christ. Excitement is a key goal because our faith is exciting. We seek to achieve it through both traditional and contemporary activities, congregational involvement, and a diversity in our music offerings.
Worship is where we utilize our people's variety of talents and gifts to develop an atmosphere in which there is an encounter with God that you are eager to repeat and where next week is not a clone of the last.
At Woodville Baptist Church, you will hear the Bible preached in sermons that touch the heart, address the intellect, explore the spirit, spark the imagination and strive to make a change in your life. We look forward to worshiping with you!
To become a Christian one must:
- Believe by faith that Jesus is the Savior and Lord. (Eph. 2:8)
- Confess your sins. This is facing your sins, admitting those sins, and agreeing with a holy righteous God that you are a sinner. (Rom. 10:9-10 & 1 John 1:9)
- Repent of those sins. This is being remorseful for breaking God's standards. It is asking to be forgiven and turning away from your sinfulness toward God (Acts 3:19, 8:22, & 26:20).
- Surrender your life to the Holy Spirit's guiding. This is promising to let Jesus live a holy life in you. (1 Cor. 6:19-20)
We invite you to become a member of Woodville Baptist Church!
- By baptism. Following the steps above, one is baptized by immersion.
- By transfer of membership from another church. Coming from another church in which you have made a profession of faith and been baptized by immersion.
- By profession of faith in Jesus Christ. You have surrendered your life to Jesus and been baptized by immersion but have never been a member of another church.
- By restoration. Those who have been disciplined may return to full membership upon recommitment to God.

MARK AND HELEN BEGARLY - Biography
Truly, Mark & Helen exist in a limbo status between two worlds, but the Zimbabwe Staff was quite full! Mark & Helen are both native to Southern Indiana where they spent most of their childhood. Mark was a block mason for 20 years and started his own construction company.
The Lord called Mark & Helen into the preaching ministry and he began attending Louisville Bible College. In 1987 he moved the family (Annette, Melissa, & Heather) to Knoxville, TN to attend Johnson University (then Bible College). Mark preached at Meadowbrook Christian Church and continued full-time after graduating. In 1992, Mark and Helen once again answered the Lord's call to further the kingdom by moving to Zambia to work with the established Zambia Christian Mission. Heather being the youngest, joined them on the mission field. In 1996, the Begarly's had made the move to Zimbabwe to start a Camp Ministry and since then many more have been started.
When on furlough, Knoxville, TN is called home. When not in Knoxville Mark and Helen can usually be found at an interstate Cracker Barrel as they tour the US, updating the supporting Churches, preaching revivals, and spending time at VBS' and Camps.
Mark and Helen's three daughters all married and stayed in Knoxville. They also have 6 grandchildren.
