A Community Built
on Love & Faith

"To know Christ and to make Him known — through worship, discipleship, fellowship, and service."

Founded in 2050 BS, Ilam Baptist Church began as a gathering of small families with a single vision: to build a church that reflects the heart of Jesus. Over four decades later, we've grown into a vibrant community of over 200 members, united in faith and committed to one another.

We believe church is not a building — it's a family. Whether you're exploring faith for the first time or looking for a place to grow deeper, you are welcome here.

Our Core Values

Christ-Centered

Jesus is the foundation of everything we do — our worship, our decisions, and our mission.

Scripture-Rooted

We trust the Bible as the living Word of God, guiding us in truth and wisdom.

Community-Focused

We grow together through authentic relationships, care, and mutual encouragement.

Outward-Looking

We are called to serve our city and the world with compassion and generosity.

Rev. Tek Bahadur Rai Pastor

Welcome to
Ilam Baptist Church

"Whether you are a long-time believer or someone just beginning to explore faith, you have found a home here."

It is my joy and honour to welcome you to Ilam Baptist Church. We are a community that believes in the transforming power of the Gospel — that no life is beyond God's reach, and that every person carries immeasurable worth and purpose.

We don't have it all figured out, but we are a family committed to journeying together — through seasons of joy and seasons of questions. Whatever brought you here, we believe it was not by accident.

Come as you are. You are loved.

— Rev. Tek Bahadur Rai
