Welcome to Providence Bible Church!
We’re thrilled that you want to learn more about Providence! We’re located in Gretna, Nebraska and have been serving our community since 2012.
We exist to mature and multiply disciples of Jesus Christ. We meet each week to worship God by singing His praises, gathering together in fellowship, and through the preaching of His Word.
We’d love to meet you this Sunday!

Let us know how
we can serve you!
What is the preaching like?
The Bible is the very Word of God and is profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, and for training in righteousness; this is why it’s our focus each week and in each sermon.
Sermons are 40-45 minutes of expository preaching. This means that we strive to make the meaning of the passage the message of the sermon.
What is the music like?
Music is a beautiful gift from God, allowing us to combine doctrine and devotion as we glorify our Savior as a congregation.
Each week we pair classic hymns of the faith alongside more contemporary songs with God-honoring lyrics. One week might have a more traditional feel led by vocalists and a piano, while the next may be more contemporary with a full band.
What do you have for children?
We provide nursery services during the 9 a.m. Sunday School hour and the 10:15 a.m. Worship Service.
Providence Kids (Pre-K - 5th grade) meet during the 9 a.m. Sunday School hour.
During the 10:15 Worship Service, we also offer Children’s Church (Pre-K - 2nd grade). Children planning to attend Children’s Church sit with their families during the first part of the service and are dismissed before the sermon begins.

When an individual is saved, they become a member of the body of Christ, also known as the Universal Church (1 Cor. 12:13, Rom. 12:5). But in the New Testament you also see individuals partner with a local body of believers to serve and obey God. This is important for all believers, because we are commanded to:
Receive instruction from God’s Word (1 Tim. 4:13; 2 Tim. 4:2)
To serve and edify one another (Rom. 12:3-8; 1 Cor. 12:4-31; 1 Pet. 4:10-11)
To participate in communion (Luke 22:19; Acts 2:38-42)
To proclaim the gospel to those who are lost (Matt. 28:18-20)
Additionally, we are called to hold one another accountable and to submit to biblical authority in the body (Heb. 13:17; 1 Cor. 5:1-13; Matt. 18:17). When one becomes a part of a church, they submit to the care and the authority of the elders that God has placed in that congregation.
To partner in ministry as a member of Providence Bible Church, please fill out our membership application. Then, an elder will reach out to you with more information.
