Harris Creek Baptist Church is a Baptist church in Tyler, TX 75708. It is one of 345 churches in Tyler, and one of 74 Baptist congregations in the city.

Our mission is to help everyone follow Jesus by engaging the lost, equipping the saints, and empowering members for service.

Harris Creek’s origins date back to 1872, when the first plot of land was gifted a few miles from where our current building stands. A group of men and women wanted to build a church where they could follow Christ in community with other believers. Today, we carry on that same legacy. We do this through weekly worship, media and ministry resources, and the intentional fostering of Christian community through events and life groups.

Baptists pressed harder than anyone for religious liberty in America, and the freedom every other congregation on this map enjoys is partly what they won. They have carried believers' baptism and the priesthood of every believer to more of the world than almost anyone — and the Black Baptist church has repeatedly been the conscience of the whole nation.
