Music Ministry

Music plays a very important role in the life of First Baptist Church. Ash Bowers is our interim Worship Director. Our goal in our music program is to always give glory and honor to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. There are many opportunities to become involved if you sing or play an instrument. In our worship services, we play hymns, modern worship music, choir specials, and more. We love playing a variety of music and welcome all who are interested to participate.

Praise Choir: We have a Praise choir. Rehearsals are held on Sundays at 4:00 PM in the Sanctuary. The choir helps lead worship for Easter.

Community Groups

FBC has a ministry for families to meet together outside of regular church times. There is time for worship, praises & prayer requests, a meal, and Bible Study. There are 7 (seven) Community Groups with more beginning in 2025. A few groups meet weekly and others meet every other week. Click here for a list of the Community Groups.
