Ministries

Bible Study

We offer Bible studies for all ages and various life stages. The hub of our Bible study time is Sunday School, in which we offer weekly classes for preschoolers through senior adults. Other Bible study opportunities, usually organized around topics, are also available during the week. And, not to be overlooked, we value the clear teaching of God’s Word during our times of corporate worship.

Music

Music is a rich part of our church’s heritage. We believe God is pleased to receive our worship through song. To provide opportunities for worship at First Baptist Church, we have an adult choir, student (youth) choir, several worship teams, instrumental group, as well as congregational singing. In all of this, we desire to offer God our heartfelt, sincere praise and adoration. If you are a skilled musician, or someone who simply likes to make a “joyful noise” to the Lord, come join your heart and voice with ours to joyfully worship God.

Youth (Grades 7-12)

The youth ministry of First Baptist Church is alive and exicted about teaching your students about Jesus Christ. Our vision for your students is based off of 1 Corinthians 10:31, which says, “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” Therefore, every aspect of our ministry is centered around helping students understand and live out the Gospel by equipping them with God’s Word and modeling true Christianity.

On a weekly basis, our students meet on Sunday at 4:30 for Youth Choir, 5:30 for Snack Supper, and from 6:00-7:00 for Core Groups. On Wednesday nights, they meet from 6:00-7:00 p.m. in the Youth Room (Rm. 272) for Bible study

Throughout the year, our students are involved in various activities such as mission trips, beach camps, choir tours and ski trips.

The main hub of information for the youth ministry is their website www.tenthirtyone.org.
