Visiting First Baptist

This page has been created so you can let people know what to expect when they visit your church.

Here are 4 ideas to help you get started:

How long is the service? It’s nice to know how long a service typically runs so people can plan accordingly.
What about kids? Visitors with children like to know what to do when they first walk in—should they head to the kid’s classrooms or bring them into the main service? Also, they want to know what kind of care their child will be receiving.
What’s the service like? Let people know the style of music, whether the service is formal or informal, and other details so they know what to expect. Try to make these details reflect the mission and values of your church.
How do people normally dress? People feel more comfortable in a new place when they don’t feel like they stand out.

We welcome visitors to our services, and pray the service will be a blessing to you.

Sunday Bible Study 9:30 am - 10:30am

Our Bible Study service is very casual, and is informative teaching and discussion of God's Word. We offer classes for all ages.

Sunday Worship Service 10:30 am - about 12:00 Noon

A traditional service beginning with congregation welcome, greetings, and hymns. Followed by prayer and thanksgiving as we collect our offering, have special music and a sermon grounded in The Word of God.

We believe it is important for children to participate in the worship service. Therefore, we encourage them to sit with you and that you guide them through the order of the service. Just before the sermon, children under 12 years old, will exit the sanctuary to their respective classes for a Bible lesson and a snack. Please be sure to let your teacher know if you have any allergies or diet requirements prior to being served a snack. As the pastor concludes his sermon, the children will return to the sanctuary to join their families for the benediction.

You will find that many of our congregation participate in Sunday service in the traditional Sunday dress, suit and tie and often "Sunday Best"; however, many also dress casually. So there is really no one dress theme, but a modest, humble congregation focusing on the Lord as they are seeking The Word. We are worship centered

Coffee Fellowship following the service about 11:45 am - 12:30pm

Everyone attending the service is invited to remain for refreshments and conversation following the Worship Service hour on Sunday. Please plan to join us for this informal time together about 11:45-12:30 depending on the service and communion.

Communion Service

The Lord's Supper is served the first Sunday of every month, following the Worship Service (unless there is a schedule conflict). If interested in attending on the first Sunday, please contact the church office for schedule updates if not provided on our site calendar.

Wednesday Evening Prayer Service and Bible Study

A casual dress prayer time begins at 6:15pm, and Bible class begins at 6:45pm. Cookies or chips are often served during this time.
