Set your mind on things above.
Hebrews 12:1, “Therefore, since we also have
such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us,
let’s rid ourselves of every obstacle
and the sin which so easily entangles us,
and let’s run with confidence
the race that is set before us,
looking only at Jesus,
the originator and perfecter of the faith,
who for the joy set before Him
endured the cross, despising the shame,
and has sat down at the right hand of God.”
Psalm 39:7, “And now, Lord, for what do I wait?
My hope is in You.
Our Church History
The First Baptist Church was organized as a mission church in November of 1919 and met in the first Meadow school house which was a simple two room frame building. When FBC built their first building for worship, they shared it with the Methodist congregation until they built a church down the street. From that time the church has become an integral part of the local community. The church has a strong history of supporting worldwide mission work as well as helping to meet the needs in the local area. Many people have spent their entire lives serving Christ at FBC. FBC has had many faithful pastors as well over the years. Our current pastor, Tom Heath, began in the fall of 2021. The church celebrated our 100th Anniversary in 2019 and is excited to see what lies ahead as we continue to serve Christ together.
