Our Purpose: First Baptist Church exists to glorify God.

Our Vision:    To be obedient followers of Jesus Christ who desire to impact the world with the Gospel.

Our Mission:   Teaching the unchanging truths of the Bible in an ever-changing world.

• Biblically Faithful: We accept all scripture to be without error and the final authority for what we believe and what we do.
  
  
• Grace Oriented:We desire God's unconditional love and forgiveness through Jesus Christ to show itself in all aspects of our ministry
  
  
• Devoted to Prayer: We uphold prayer to be fundamental to our individual lives. We rely on prayer in the conception, planning, and execution of church ministries and activities.
  
  
• Active Worshipers: We believe worship is central to the life of all believers. It is a vital part of what we experience together and what we do individually as we commune daily with God.
  
  
• Relationally Centered: We stress the cultivation of relationships among Christians. We believe small groups are one of the most effective means for building relationships, stimulating spiritual growth, and developing leaders.
  
  
• People Developing: We teach biblical truth in a manner that leads to obedience. We equip people for their personal ministry.
  
  
• Family Affirming: We provide ministries that strengthen marriages and families.
  
  
• Outreach Focused: We embrace God's command for us to reach as many people as possible with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ. We reach beyond our own community to impact people around the world with the Gospel.
  
  
• Multi-Generational: We balance and blend our ministries as we biblically and creatively communicate truth to people of all ages
  
  
• Shared Ministry: We encourage those within our fellowship to initiate, lead, and take responsibility for the various ministries of the church. Under the leadership of Jesus Christ we assign the overall leadership of the church to the pastor and our elected boards.
