Gospel Project Students

Ages 4 – Grade 6 | Wednesday Nights 6:45-8:00 p.m. Sept. – April

Gospel Project Students is our Wednesday night program for children, ages 4 through 6th grade. It is a weekly bible study that helps kids dive deep into the big story of the Bible–God’s plan to rescue His people through His Son, Jesus Christ. Not only do they learn about the Bible, the children also sing God honoring songs and play games. We believe it is important for children to learn about the Bible so they may have a Biblical foundation to lean on as they grow in their faith. Join us on Wednesday evenings and let us help you point your child to Christ!

Demolishing Strongholds

“For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds.

2 Corinthians 10:4

Vacation Bible School

Join us for VBS 2025! June 3-6, at 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and June 8, at 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

It is for all children ages 4 years through completed 5th grade.

Our amazing God is not only the Creator of all things, but He also cares about His creation, right down to the tiniest detail. And the Bible tells us that people are the most significant part of that creation. God created you and knows every detail about you—right down to the design of your fingerprints and the number of hairs on your head. God cares about everything that happens to you.

Magnified! VBS will encourage kids to look closely at the details of God’s amazing world and magnify, or proclaim, the greatness of God. God made us, cares about us, loves us, forgives us, and is faithful to keep all His promises to us. We can praise God together! We were made to magnify God!

Registration will open May 1, 2025!

Men’s Ministries

First Baptist Church has an active men’s ministry. During the summer months, the activities include a Men and Boys Outing at Camp Clay, Steak Night, and a Golf Outing. Good food, close fellowship, laughter, fun, and reflecting on the Word together is a good summary of what takes place at these events.  We also host a men’s retreat during the early spring as well. The men’s ministry is aimed at pursuing our mission of reproducing Christ-followers who love God wholeheartedly, live out His Word, and light up His world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 

Women’s Ministries

“She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.” Proverbs 31:26

The Women’s Ministries of FBC actively provide several outlets for learning and growing together in Christ, influencing our families, and becoming equipped to share God’s love in service to others. We host fun events and have Bible studies  for younger and older women with sessions in fall and spring.
