Plug In


Everything you need to know to get involved at Quest. Come be a part of the Quest, The College ministry of Bel Air Presbyterian Church. We are a community of college age students and non-students, who gather together for weekly worship, study, and fellowship.


Purpose


Our purpose at The Quest is to bring People to maturity in Their relationship with Jesus Christ, so that They can in humility, serve God, serve those in The Bel Air and Quest community, and serve those in the world.


Vision


Our vision at The Quest is to recognize and affirm the life changing stage you find yourself in and to come alongside and encourage you in your journey. We recognize that we are a people in process who are growing in maturity. Just as “the whole congregation of the Israelites journeyed by stages, as the LORD commanded (Exodus 17:1), we believe that God is journeying us through the stages of our faith as He commands. The Quest also echoes the words of the Apostle Paul, “For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known (I Corinthians 13:12). At The Quest, we strive not only to come alongside those who have placed their faith in God, and encourage them in their journey, but we also want to come alongside those who are still searching, inviting them to join us in the journey.
