Connecting the Community With Christ

Pastor Bruce's Welcome Message

Our hope and prayer is that as you “check us out” you will discover several things about our church family.  

We are a church committed to bringing people into a personal, growing relationship with Christ and His Church. Our primary purpose is to tell people about Jesus—how they can know Him as their personal Savior and Lord and how they can grow in their relationship with Him.   

We are a body of believers who gladly offer praise to God.  The Lord is so good; we have to let Him know, right?  So, we sing songs of adoration and honor.  We join our hearts together in prayer.  We listen to Him as He speaks through the proclamation of His Word.  Worship is a special time for our family as we come together as one to worship the One who died for us!  

We are a warm and friendly family where you will be welcomed.  We have classes and small groups for every age group.  You will grow in your knowledge of the Lord as you study the Bible with others.  Also you will grow in relationships.  We all need friends, brothers and sisters, with whom we can share our lives, our journey. 

We are a church that loves kids (your kids)!  We love teaching them God’s Word.  AWANA is a great way for your child to learn about Jesus.  We love to watch them play—basketball, soccer, and baseball are offered for kids as young as age 4.  We love to hear them sing—our children’s choirs are fantastic. We have a very active youth group.

We are a church that has the world on its heart.  Missions is a major part of our ministry.  Each year, we have a large number of our church family participate in mission journeys that literally take them around the world.  From hurricane relief in Mississippi to teaching pastors in foreign countries, we want to share the love of Christ.

So, enjoy your visit at our website.  Then visit us at First Baptist and find out for yourself that we are a family you will want to claim as your home, too!
