Ministries & Programs

Missions


To build passion and awareness for missions within the church family and promote participation in the Great Commission.  The mission team brings opportunities to participate in missions through conferences, service, prayer and giving; we want to broaden the understanding of the Great Commission.  We want to grow a heart for people in need by encouraging and supporting the mission interest.  There are also opportunities to act as a liaison between current missionaries and our home church, as well as to recommend new missionaries/missions for First Baptist to support.

Vacation Bible School  is a weekday program held each summer to engage children in biblical teachings. The 2024 VBS theme is The Great Jungle Journey. Grab your binoculars and don your life vest! We are off on a cruise through the jungle! Kids will explore the biblical answers to life questions as they set off on an epic adventure from Genesis to Revelation. Amid sloths, butterflies, river dolphins, and dart frogs, your children will sail along on a fun jungle cruise, stopping at seven ports of call. Kids will discover how these events shape our world, and they will learn to reconnect the Bible to their everyday lives. Check our Facebook page for updates!
