Come Home to FBC!

Here, you will discover a warm group of real people purposeful to be Rooted in Christ and Growing in Faith following our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Serving the World.

"And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as you Lord, you must continue to live in obedience to him.  Let your roots grow down into him and draw up nourishment from him, so you will grow in faith, strong and vigorous in the truth you were taught.  Let your lives overflow with thanksgiving for all he has done.”            Colossions 2:6-7 (NLT)

First Baptist Church exists...

To honor and glorify God by obeying Jesus' command to make disciples of all people. We accomplish this through our Mission and Core Values.

  • Sending those believers back out into the world to share with others the story of how Jesus saved them (Rom. 10:13-15; Acts 1:8)
