Adults Ministry
Singles make up a large portion of the adult population in the Columbia area. We have three great groups within our Singles: 20 Somethings, for singles age 20 to 29, Young Professionals, for ages 27-35, and Single Adults, for ages 30 and up. Click Here for more details.
Significance and purpose are discovered, developed, and strengthened in community. The best way to develop community is through meaningful relationships. Shandons Married Adult Ministries help you build those relationships with God and others. Click Here for more details.
The Senior Adult Ministry of Shandon Baptist Church encompasses those in the general age range of 60 and up. Our belief is that the senior years are not a time for people to simply retire to the rocking chair, but a time to catch a second wind and make a real difference in life using the wisdom and resources that God has afforded them.

Shandon College Ministry
Shandon College Ministry is both an on-campus student organization at the University of South Carolina and a ministry of Shandon Baptist Church. As such, we believe that our purpose is to serve the students of Columbia's various college campuses and to function as a fruitful and contributing member of the local church and the larger body of Christ.
