Every Tuesday afternoon, the ladies of First Baptist Church are given the opportunity to gather together at the church for a time of prayer. You are welcome to join us. If you have questions, please call the church office at 632-2488.

Small Groups:
The last Sunday evening of every month, the FBC family joins together in individual small groups for food, fun, fellowship and a lesson from God's Word. These groups meet at the homes of the group's host family, and one group meets at the church.

Some of the objectives of the small groups are to encourage people to experience a more intimate fellowship with Christ, or to challenge each person to invite Jesus Christ to be his or her Savior. Small groups also help us build close relationships among other members of the group and church family.

Jesus Himself belonged to a small group. He was their Master, Teacher and Leader. He shared with them, ate with them, prayed for them and grew close to them. They in turn shared with Him, ate with Him, learned from Him and grew close to Him as well. Being part of a small group fellowship is beneficial in many ways to our spiritual life and our relationships with others in our church family. If you are not involved in a small group, we would encourage you to become a part of one, you will be glad you did.

Our small groups have taken a break for the summer months. New groups will form in the Fall. We hope you are able to join us! If you would like more information on our small groups, please contact the First Baptist Church office.

Kids Klub:

Kids Klub is a non-denominational childrens ministry that was begun in 1953 in northern Illinois. Kids Klub is a weekly Klub that meets to teach children ages 1st thru 6th grade about the salvation we can have in Jesus Christ, and how to live in a way that pleases God. During a typical Klub meeting, kids sing songs (some interactive), play games that are centered around the Bible verse or lesson theme for the evening, hear about a missionary and their work, work on memorizing a Bible verse, hear an engaging lesson about a particular event in the Bible or a particular person, and compete against eachother in sword drills. It's always an exciting time at Kids Klub - and, there is no fee to belong - anyone can come! Be sure to visit our Kids Klub page, and if you would like more information about Kids Klub, you can visit their website here.

Kids Klub has taken a break for the summer months. Be sure to join us this Fall for another exciting year of Kids Klub!
