About Us

Our Pastor

Picture
Pastor Tim Shellenberger grew up on a farm in eastern Washington. He graduated from Heartland Baptist Bible College in 2000. One week after graduation, he married Christie and they moved back to their home state of Washington, where he served eight years as the Associate Pastor of the Woodin Valley Baptist Church. In 2006, he earned his Masters in Business Administration through Liberty University. In 2009, the Lord called Pastor Tim to plant a church in Centralia under the leadership of the Olympia Bible Baptist Church. He moved here with that God-given call and one year later the Centralia Bible Baptist was chartered on May 3, 2010. Pastor Tim and Christie have three incredible boys and a little lady. They love ministering here in southwest Washington where they not only get to serve with amazing people in a great community but they also get to bike, hike, kayak and dig clams together!

Our Story

We began as a church plant meeting in places like granges and hotels. After a few years of renting places, our small group, along with our sending church, decided to purchase a more permanent location on South Gold Street. The building was most recently used as a chiropractor office and was not much of a church building. The bathrooms were located in the sanctuary. The carpet was old and worn. The building was rather musty - but it was ours, all 5 parking spots and the 1,600 square foot building (You're right, it wasn't much). Looking back on those days it was nothing short of a miracle that people came to church and stuck around. We praise the Lord as He is the one who builds His church - in spite of the obstacles.
​
In 2010 we chartered the church and decided to remodel the building to make every square foot count. As the church grew, we went to two morning services and filled the building up again. It became obvious that it was time to relocate and God opened the door. In 2014, we moved to our current location and have been remodeling and building ever since. It took 3 1/2 years, but we built our current sanctuary debt free and went back to one morning worship service the first Sunday of 2018. We'd love for you to come be a part of the story. We would count it a privilege to have you be our guest this Sunday. 

We are currently in the process of building a covered picnic and play area as well as a playground for children. These outdoor improvements will greatly help us serve the church and community. It is our goal to turn every square foot that God has given us into a place of ministry for His glory.
