Our Services
At First Baptist Church we offer two different services that have two different formats, but both you will find friendly and spirit lead. Both services have times for you to worship, listen and be drawn to God. The sermon is the same in both services brought by our Senior Pastor, Pastor Tim.
Contemporary Service - 8:45 am

Our Contemporary Service meets in Victory Hall on Sundays at 8:45 am. This service is open to everyone and the music is led by Pastor John and our Praise Band. If you enjoy hand clapping and contemporary Christian music you will enjoy this service. We want you to be comfortable in worshipping our God. So visit this service and see if it meets your needs.
Traditional Service - 11:00 am
Our Traditional Service meets in the sanctuary on Sundays at 11:00 am. This is service is open to everyone and the music is led by Pastor Gary and our Celebration Choir. Those that enjoy the traditional hymns and choruses will find this service meets your needs.
Our Beliefs
We affirm the Holy Bible as the inspired word of God and the basis for our
beliefs. This church subscribes to the doctrinal statement of "The Baptist Faith
and Message" as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in 1963. We
voluntarily band ourselves together as a body of baptized believers in Jesus
Christ personally committed to sharing the good news of
salvation to lost mankind. The ordinances of the church are the believer's
baptism and the Lord's Supper.
