Church fellowship is important for our church as it was also for the early New Testament church. Acts 2:42 includes fellowship among the essential functions of a church along with Bible teaching and prayer. Parsippany Baptist Church plans numerous activities because we have learned the strengthening affect this has upon our church family. Monthly fellowship meals or church dinners, seasonal recreational activities of basketball, volleyball and softball, family events, missions trips, and even field trips that reinforce what we are learning in our Bible classes all serve to unite us and reinforce a sense of fellowship and mutual encouragement.
Listed below are adult and youth ministries that Parsippany Baptist Church offers.

ADULT ACTIVITIES
In the tradition of the early church, Parsippany Baptist Church offers continuing and concentrated education for those who earnestly desire to further their ministry for the Lord or to sharpen their skills.
Designed as a men's discipleship program, this unique ministry offers men a special time of Bible study and prayer in a setting of fellowship. Our men meet at Paul's Diner on Route 46 East in Mountain Lakes, New Jersey on Fridays at 5:30 a.m.
Although the short time we spend together is full of instruction from the Bible and prayer, we also have time to enjoy a laugh or two over a good breakfast.
Our Ladies Bible study meets every Wednesday at 10AM in the church's nursery. Both older and younger ladies attend. If you have any school children they are welcome to play right there in the nursery.
The choice of books we will study depends on the wishes and needs of the ladies.
There will be no Bible study when Christian School is not in session and on snow days or by mutual consent.
With a strong, biblical emphasis on homes and the sanctity of marriage, Parsippany Baptist Church hosts an annual retreat for couples.
A time of retreat for the men and boys with various activities with a spiritual emphasis.
The Shepherd's Haven ministry is a place for pastors to meet and study the Word of God on a weekly basis. We meet every Wednesday morning at 10:00 am on a web conference hosted by the pastor of Parsippany Baptist Church, Alan Brown.
