What can you expect at First Mission Baptist?

First Mission Baptist Church was founded in the 1930's.  We continue today to be relevant to today's culture while staying true to the Biblical truths on which our church was founded.  In order to achieve this purpose, First Mission Baptist Church, in the unity of the Spirit, seeks to use all the gifts that God has given us and every means of grace which God has placed at our disposal.

Each service begins with an inspirational time of prayer, praise and worship.  We make sure we've committed every service to God in the firm hope that He'll be glorified and move in the hearts of His people.  When it comes to Praise and Worship, we take our time because we believe that time spent singing and offering God our expressions of gratitude and thanks helps the believer to forget about the cares of this world and focus on the God we serve;  our God who is able and willing to strengthen and keep us in every area of our lives.

We believe in worshipping God in many ways;  clapping and lifting our hands, singing, and speaking words of praise and thanksgiving.  We know God loves to hear His people worship Him as a congregation and our individual faith is built up every time we gather and exalt Him together.

There's a time of giving at First Mission, as we believe that giving is an intricate part of worship.  "Our giving provides us an opportunity to show just how much we are devoted to God.  When we give generously, we demonstrate that we have indeed made a complete commitment to the Lord."

You'll hear sound biblical teaching and the preached Word at First Mission Baptist Church.  We believe the Holy Scriptures are inspired and complete revelation of God's Will concerning man's salvation.  We understand that people are at different places in their walk with the Lord;  from new believers to leaders in-training.  However, the biblical teaching and preaching is relevant to all of us, no matter what level we're on.  The sermons and teachings you hear at First Mission Baptist will challenge you to walk closer with the Lord and to search out His good and perfect will for your life.

These are just some of the activities you can expect to see at First Mission Baptist, but no two services are alike because our pastor is sensitive and obedient to the leading of the Holy Spirit and He reserves the right to change the order of service at any time!   So, no matter how the service goes, one thing we know for sure is that God will be glorified at First Mission Baptist Church.
