The Ministries of our Church
Sunday School
Pastor David Brown and his wife Linda - David is Senior Pastor of First Baptist Church Sunday SchoolGod'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 SocietyThe 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. Our 3M's Meeting Schedule for 2008-2009
