Lord's Day Worship
Sundays at 10:45 AM
Our service runs about 75–90 minutes. We sing historic hymns, read Scripture responsively, and hear expository preaching from God's Word — convicting, encouraging, and deeply practical.
Who We Are
Covenant Baptist Church
Founded on Scripture. Formed by grace. Sent with purpose.
Our Story
A Mission Work of Waco Family Baptist
Covenant Baptist Church is a mission work of Waco Family Baptist Church, led by Pastor Todd Gill.
In early 2023, a handful of families in Wichita Falls began searching for a doctrinally sound church home. What they found instead was a landscape saturated with teaching that was, at best, milky — shallow, man-centered, and far from the Scriptures. The search led them to the Texas Area Association of Reformed Baptist Churches, where they found likeminded believers and presented the case for a faithful Reformed Baptist church in Wichita Falls.
Waco Family Baptist Church answered that call. Under the leadership of Todd Gill, the families began meeting monthly for Bible study and fellowship in the spring of 2023. By June, Wilson Marsh had been identified and sent to lead what would become Covenant Baptist Church. He began leading weekly Sunday worship, and the congregation grew — in number, in wisdom, and in grace.
In April 2024, Covenant Baptist Church officially constituted as an autonomous congregation and joined the Texas Area Association of Reformed Baptist Churches.
Today, we continue to grow through the faithful preaching of God's Word, the right administration of the ordinances, and the regular fellowship of the saints.
Our Convictions
Reformed Baptist Identity
Scripture Alone
Sola Scriptura
We believe the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God — sufficient for all matters of faith and life. No tradition, experience, or institution stands above Scripture.
Grace Alone
Sola Gratia
We believe salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. God elected His people before the foundation of the world, drew them to Himself through the Spirit, and redeemed them by the finished work of Jesus Christ.
Christ Alone
Solus Christus
We believe Jesus Christ is the sole Mediator between God and man — fully God, fully man, who lived the righteousness we could not and died the death we owed. There is no salvation apart from His finished work, and no other name by which we must be saved.
Faith Alone
Sola Fide
We believe that sinners are justified by faith alone, apart from works. The righteousness of Christ is imputed to the believer, and that righteousness — not our own — is the sole basis of our acceptance with God.
Glory to God Alone
Soli Deo Gloria
We believe that the ultimate purpose of all things — creation, redemption, and final judgment — is the glory of God alone. Every thought, word, and deed is to be done for the praise of His glorious grace.
Plan a Visit
What to Expect on a Visit
A Warm Welcome
No pressure, no spotlights
You will be greeted at the door. There is no formal visitor spotlight — our members will simply introduce themselves after the service. Dress is business casual. Come as you are. We mean that.
The Preaching
Expository, book by book
We work through books of the Bible passage by passage, verse by verse. The Bible is deep enough to mine for a lifetime and clear enough to obey today. Expect serious, warm, Christ-centered teaching.
Our People
United by the Savior
We are a small, committed congregation of different ages and backgrounds — some families who have walked with Christ for decades, some who are brand new to the faith. What unites us is not sameness, but the Savior.
Our Ordinances
Baptism & the Lord's Supper
We practice believer's baptism by immersion as a public profession of faith. We celebrate the Lord's Supper each week as a means of grace, open to all who have genuinely trusted in Christ, been baptized, and are walking in submission without known unrepentant sin. We gather at the Table not because we are worthy, but because Christ is.
Family Integrated Worship
Children present for all of it
We believe children belong in the whole of gathered worship — not merely for the sermon, but for the ordinances as well. We offer no separate children's services or youth programs during worship. Families worship together, parents shepherding their children alongside the means of grace.
This is neither easier nor more convenient. But faithfulness has never been measured by convenience.
Church Officers
Pastor / Elder / Overseer
Wilson Marsh
Wilson grew up in south Texas (Charlotte) with Christian parents. He trusted in Christ and was baptized at the age of 8. He studied theology at Texas State University, where he met his wife Kayla. They were married in 2012, and have four children (Walker, Liam, Olivia, and Haddon).
He grew up in a faithful SBC church. After being sent off by the congregation, he served as a youth pastor for 2 years, then as lead pastor of FBC Dawson for 4 years, before becoming the church planting pastor of CBCWF.
He is currently pursuing his M.Div at Covenant Baptist Seminary.
