As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
Proverbs 27:17
At Hernando Baptist, we value godly relationships that are built on the principles of God’s Word. Each of our Life Groups strive to create an experience in which godly relationships can thrive and develop. Our hope is that by belonging to a Life Group you experience God’s love as Life Group members show God’s loving kindness toward you. We seek to love God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Each and every week, we study God’s Word in order to grow in our love for Him and others.

Ron Leonard
Missions Pastor
Hi, my name is Ron! I'm the Missions Pastor here at Hernando Baptist Church. I believe Life Groups are an integral part of who we are as a church. My passion is for every church member to be actively involved in a Life Group. In Life Groups we connect with others, study God’s Word and apply His Word in ministry. Through Life Groups, people connect through fellowship, grow in love for Christ and others, and live out a life that leads others to Christ. If you have any questions about Life Groups or how you can serve in this ministry, I would love to talk with you further. Just fill out the connect card below or call the church office at 662 - 429 - 6361.
