Ministry Placement Service

This ministry helps Christians follow 3 steps in the process of placement

The first step is Discovery, which involves homework, and one all day seminar. The second step is Consultation where five areas are reviewed: Ministry Passion, Spiritual Gifts, Personal Style, Spiritual Maturity, and Ministry Availability. The third step is the selected area of Service which fits the believer's profile.

The goal is for the right people to be in the right places for the right reasons at First Baptist Church.

Fellowship Groups

Small groups of people gathering in homes or at the church in the tri-city area to promote the spiritual growth and belonging of each individual.

We gather in His name to Fellowship - Bible Study - Pray for one another. The goal of the home Fellowship Groups is to provide a small group setting where people are comfortable to participate in a Bible study and to share their joys and needs with each other. There is an empty chair waiting for you.

Jail Team

Showing the love of Jesus to those who are incarcerated. A team of dedicated men meet regularly at the local jail to minister to the inmates by: Sharing testimonies, leading Bible studies, distributing Bibles and Christian literature, and supporting the families.

Evangelism, baptisms and discipleship are the goals of this team

Evangelism Follow-up

This ministry cooperates with other ministries in the church engaged in evangelism.

After an initial visit for assurance of salvation, the new believer is invited to a helpful one-on-one discipleship ministry. The discipleship materials cover these topics: Attributes of God, The Bible, Prayer, Spirit-filled life, Fellowship, Witnessing, Temptation, Obedience.

The leader in this one-on-one discipling gives specific assignments that require a significant investment of time and study.

Crown Ministries

The 12-week studies are formed twice annually. Confidential and free counseling is available upon request.
