Here at First Baptist Church, we feel that there are five things everyone needs to know about us.

Our Purpose for Ministry

Our purpose for ministry is described in Matthew 5:14-16. "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put in on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. in the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in Heaven."

Our Passion for Ministry

Our passion is to love all people, to lead in praise, and to live with purpose so that all people may come to faith in Jesus Christ!

Our Philosophy for Ministry

We believe the Holy Bible to be Divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit without any mixture of error.  We believe Jesus Christ is the virgin-born Son of God who lived a sinless life, was crucified for all the sins of humanity, was buried, was resurrected from the dead, and ascended to the right hand of the Father.  We believe there is everlasting life in Heaven with God or in Hell separated from God.  We believe there is only one way to everlasting life with God in Heaven, and that is through faith in Jesus Christ based on confession and repentance of sin.  We also believe Jesus Christ is coming back in great power and glory for those who look for His return.
