Q: Are you Amish or Mennonite? What's the difference?

Great question — and one we hear often! Springfield Bible Church has roots in the Mennonite tradition, but we are not Amish. While Amish and Mennonite communities share some historical origins, they are quite different in practice and belief. The Amish are known for plain dress, limited technology, and a very distinct separation from modern society. We don't follow those practices. As for our Mennonite heritage — we recently updated our name to Springfield Bible Church to better reflect who we are today: a warm, Bible-believing community focused on the truth of Scripture, welcoming anyone who wants to know Jesus Christ. Our name changed, but our heart didn't.

Q: Will I be singled out as a visitor?

No. You’re welcome to participate as much or as little as you’d like. There’s no pressure to stand, speak, or do anything you’re uncomfortable with.

Q: What do you have for kids?

We offer Sunday School for children and adults at 9:15 AM. Families are always welcome, and children’s ministries are an important part of our church.
