Beachmont Christian Ministries began in 1973 when Mrs. Aimee Foard met with Paul and Maureen Twining to discuss the future of the farm she and her late husband had operated for many years. The Twinings were involved in youth ministry and believed God was leading them to develop a Christian camp. Mrs. Foard had been praying for six years that God would send someone to her farm to run just such a ministry. Upon the discovery that God had placed a similar vision in each of their hearts, she donated a portion of the Beachmont farm for the purpose of spreading the life-changing message of the Bible.

Now, many years later, Beachmont is a thriving ministry reaching hundreds of families each year with the Word of God. Plans for development, ministry, and operation are under the prayerful guidance of Beachmont's Board of Directors. Since its inception, Beachmont has moved forward with the motto "where there is God's vision, there will be God's provision."

Each of the existing facilities have become a reality in direct answers to the prayers of many people that have taken an interest in what God is doing on the beautiful 35 acre site.

OUR MISSION

Beachmont Christian Ministries exists to proclaim the good news that Jesus Christ came into the world to give spiritual life to all those who believe in Him.

The programs we provide and the facilities we offer for use are done so with the intent that all we do bring honor to God.

We desire to provide a Christian atmosphere in which a person of any age can enjoy wholesome activities that will enrich one's life emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

We believe in the ministry of the local church as is set forth in the New Testament scriptures. It is our desire to supplement this ministry and encourage all Christians to grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ.

DOCTRINAL STATEMENT

We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were "given by inspiration of God", which we understand to mean that men chosen by God were moved by the Holy Spririt to write the very words of Scripture - the infallible Word of God. Thus, they are without error in the original writings and are the supreme and final authority for faith and life.

We believe in one God, creator and sustainer of the universe, who eternally exists in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, who are of one substance and equal in power and glory, having precisely the same nature, attributes, and perfections, and worthy of the same worship and obedience.

We believe Jesus Christ to be the eternally existent Son of God, the second Person of the Godhead, begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, true God and true man having two distinct natures united in one Person; that He was bodily resurrected and ascended into Heaven where He presently performs the ministry of intercession; that He shall come again personally and visibly to consummate the eternal plan of God.

We believe that man was created in the image of God; that through disobedience he fell from his sinless state, incurring not only physical death but also that spiritual death which is separation from God; that all human beings are born in a sinful state and are sinners by nature and practice being personally guilty before God.

We believe that men can be delivered from this condition only by the grace of God through the finished work of Jesus Christ who died for our sins according to the Scriptures as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him, repenting of their sin, are freed from the penalty of that sin and reunited with God as His children on the ground of the shed blood of Christ by the agency of the Holy Spirit.

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Triune God, who applies to man the work of Christ, indwelling every believer in Christ; to enlighten, guide, and enable him in life, testimony, and service.

We believe that the Church is an elect company of believers, baptized by the Holy Spirit into one Body; that its mission is to witness concerning its Head, Jesus Christ, "making disciples of all nations," and equipping them to reach others with the good news of the Gospel.
