God has given First Baptist Church the mission of helping people know, love and become like Jesus. This simple phrase is the backbone of all that we do. We believe this to be the meaning behind the Great Commission that Jesus gave his disciples in Matthew 28. Today, First Baptist Church’s mission is acted out through the 2025 Vision. God has laid the vision on our hearts that as we seek God, He will form us to become increasingly Christ-like and to be family to everyone who needs family. You’ll hear our vision incorporated into our sermons.
