About Encounter Church
Encounter Church in Baton Rouge is a welcoming community founded in 2003 by Philip, who was called to ministry through his family's pastoral legacy and education at Jimmy Swaggart Bible College. The church describes itself as a place where life starts, love happens, and purpose is revealed, emphasizing an inclusive atmosphere where visitors are greeted warmly and treated as friends rather than outsiders. Sunday worship experiences last approximately 90 minutes and feature engaging praise and worship followed by a message designed to carry attendees through the week. The church provides nursery and children's programs during services, youth ministry for middle and high school students, and Small Groups for spiritual growth and community connection. First-time visitors receive a special welcome at the Welcome Desk with a gift, and complimentary coffee is available throughout the lobby.
