History
Moose Jaw Baptist Church exists due to the long-time, faithful ministry of our former pastor, Roger Foust and his wife, Ruth. Missionaries Roger and Ruth Foust, along with their four children, came to Moose Jaw in early 1982 under Hiawatha Baptist Missions (now Continental Baptist Missions). They established a Bible believing, Bible preaching, unaffiliated church and called it Moose Jaw Baptist Church. The first service was held on June 6, 1982. The church grew both numerically and spiritually since that time and became self-supporting in the early 2000s. While many things had changed in Moose Jaw during the last four decades, Pastor Foust continued to minister to the city through the work of the church. He had a passion for this city and all its residents.
Above all, Pastor Foust had a passion for God and His Word. Pastor Foust taught that it really does make a difference what you believe, and that we must always go to the Bible to properly understand God, life, and even ourselves.
At the end of 2019, Pastor Foust officially retired as pastor of Moose Jaw Baptist Church. He passed away peacefully with family by his side on Friday, January 13, 2023, at the age of 74. Thank you, Pastor, for all you’ve done for the glory of God here in Moose Jaw!
On March 19, 2023, we held a special business meeting to unanimously vote in Pastor Joe Hudson to shepherd our church. We praise the LORD for bringing this godly servant to Moose Jaw, and we look forward to God’s plans for us, our local community, and our global missionaries.
