Softball Interest

Thank you for your interest in playing softball for Mount Vernon Baptist Church! Softball is another way we build the community of faith at Mount Vernon through recreation. As we play, we strive to be examples for Christ in both word and action—representing Him, our church, and our teammates to those we play with, against, and those watching. Teams will be filled with active church attendees first. If there are open spots available, they will be offered to others.
