Welcome!
Eureka Baptist is a multi-generational church established in 1875. We are located three miles south of Richland, Missouri on highway FF just across the Laclede county line. We are a community of believers in our savior Jesus Christ, God’s son. We strive to center our lives on Jesus by loving God and others.
We desire to share God’s love and forgiveness of sin in the tri-county area. We also seek to meet the physical and spiritual needs by supporting local ministries and missionaries around the world.
We would love to have you worship with us. We are friendly folks and the atmosphere is very welcoming. We have Bible study groups for all ages and nursery services, as well.

What We Believe
In John 14:6, Jesus said, “I am the way, the light, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me”. We believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Eternal life (salvation) can only be graciously given and received by confession of our sin and acceptance of Christ as our savior.
Our Mission
Our mission at Eureka Baptist church is to fulfill the requirements God set forth in Micah 6:8
