Sunday School

God's Word is the light that directs our path each and every day. God's Word is sufficient for all our needs and our only source of life and godliness. Join us for an in depth study of the Words of God.

We have classes for the following age groups: 2s & 3s, 4 & 5s, Primary, Junior, Junior high, Senior high, College and Career, and Adult; plus a Nursery for new born babes and the Cradle for toddlers. Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.


3M's Missionary Society

The 3M's are Maidens, Mrs., and Moms. The object of this society is to develop the spiritual life; to engage in missionary work for the home and foreign mission fields supported by the church, and to promote social activities and the benevolent interest of the women of the church. Any woman, who is a member of the church, is a member of the 3M's Missionary Society, and any other woman can become a non-voting member who is in sympathy with our ideals; and she may serve in any capacity, except elective offices, as committee head, and in the nursery.

The 3M's has four officers President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer. We have six standing committees which help to fulfill our objective. These committees are as follows:

Missionary Work Committee: This committee is responsible for the missionary cupboard, 3M's missionary work projects, and missionary information.

Sunshine Committee: This committee is responsible for sending cards and making visits to spread cheer, and oversees bridal and baby showers.

Kitchen Committee: This committee is responsible for organizing the workers schedule for the year, purchase of kitchen supplies, and to oversee the kitchen during church activities.

Hospitality Committee: This committee is responsible for finding suitable housing and meals for visiting missionaries and special speakers, and organizing meals to be taken into the homes of those in our fellowship where there is a need due to an illness, hospital stay, or other stressful conditions.

Nursery Committee: This committee is responsible for making a nursery workers schedule, keeping the nurseries clean and orderly, maintaining supplies and current baby information.

Social Committee: This committee is responsible for promoting and organizing social activities for the church, such as pie socials, singspirations, and other such functions.

At each meeting we start out with a devotional or an update on one of our supported missionaries. We then proceed with our business meeting. After the meeting we break up into groups and pray for our supported missionaries. Then we have a missionary project time, such as a craft to give to a missionary. We also make time to have a snack and to have fellowship with one another. We have specific items we need donated to our missionary cupboard for each month. We ask ladies to bring these items as they are able.

We hold our meetings at the church on the fourth Tuesday of every month at 7:00 PM, except for the months of May (we have a Mother/Daughter Banquet or Tea), July (we sponsor a family picnic), and August (we take a summer break). Due to the Holidays in November and December the week may vary.

Youth Program for 7th through 12th Graders

The youth program at First Baptist Church is a Bible-based program for 7th - 12th graders.  Our purpose is to ground young people in the truths of God's Word.  To teach them to apply God's standards in their daily living and decision making. We offer a Junior High (7th and 8th graders) and High School (9th through 12th graders) Sunday School class.  On Wednesday nights we have a combined program for 7th through 12th graders using the Word of Life Teen program.  The emphasis here is discipleship.  There is an accountability program for the young person in the areas of devotions, scripture memory and Christian service. There are youth activities through out the year giving young people opportunities to meet other Christian young people and to develop friendships with our church young people. Joe Paczocha


Music Program

The purpose of music in the life of a believer is to glorify and worship our Heavenly Father.  Therefore, this is the focus of all music at First Baptist Church, First Baptist Church has a choir that ministers all through the year.  This ministry is available for 7th graders through adults who are members of First Baptist.  Rehearsal time is on Sunday afternoon from 5 - 6PM. Special music opportunities are available for both the AM and PM services for members of First Baptist Church. Nancy Paczocha


Olympian Clubs

The Olympian program is geared to Challenge children in Grades 1-6. The children get into a pattern of spending time with the Lord every day with their quiet time, They also have memory verses to do weekly and Christian books to read and write reports, building character into the children through God's Word is stressed.

12 Weeks of Classes begin Monday nights

September 22 through December 8, 2008

Course Title Time / Instructor Course Description # Credits
1 & 2 Thessalonians 7:00 – 7:55 p.m.
Instructor: Pastor William Darrow
This is a verse-by-verse study of the entire two books. Notes will be given out each class. Study questions will also be given out to help the students to review what has been taught. The two books of Thessalonians have some of the most helpful material in regard to the end times teaching. 2 credits
The New Age Tower of Babel 7:00-7:55 p.m.
Instructor: Dr. David L. Brown
I agree with a Christian author who wrote -- “It is safe to say that the prevailing religion in America ... is no longer Christianity but is instead New Age.” The New Age philosophy has permeated the self-help, personal transformation field; it has leavened education (from lowest to highest levels) and reached deeply into business, health care, psychological counseling, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, politics and government, athletics and sports, even the military. God’s people need to be able to identify the New Age and refute it with Scripture so that they can protect themselves, their churches, their loved ones, and their neighbors in these dark last days. That is the purpose of the class. [The course book we will be using is The New Age Tower of Babel by David Cloud] 2 credits
2 Samuel 8:00-8:55 p.m. 
Instructor: Pastor William Darrow
This is also a verse-by-verse study of the entire book of 2 Samuel. Notes will be given in each class. Study questions will be given out to help students to review what has been taught. 2 Samuel begins with David becoming king of Israel and ends with his death. It is helpful material to encourage the believer to realize God blesses those who live for Him but judges those who sin. 2 credits
History of The Churches 8:00-8:55 p.m.
Instructor: Dr. David L. Brown
This exciting course on church history begins with the Apostolic Churches and ends with the early 1800s. In the first section, we deal with the characteristics of apostolic churches. The next section covers "The Budding of Apostasy 100-700 A.D." Under this section, we deal with the development of the Roman Catholic "church," the church fathers, the progress of true churches, and the persecutions by pagan emperors. The next sections cover the Roman Catholic Church 700-1500 A.D., the Waldenses, the Roman Catholic Inquisition, the Bible in the Middle Ages, John Wycliffe and the Lollards, the Protestant Reformation, the Catholic Counter-Reformation, the Bibles of the Reformation, the Anabaptists of the Reformation, and Revival and Missions in the 1700s. 2 credits
