Saturday October 15th, 10am – 3pm in Fellowship Hall
All who call First Baptist “home” are invited to join us on October 15th for this inspiring, informative, empowering event—the first in a series of leadership workshops slated to take place over the next couple of years at FBC. Dr. Geoff Abbott and Mr. Mark Nishan will offer a faith-based version of their successful Intact Team Workshops.

Together we’ll focus on exploring:
- The values that shape who we are as a congregation
- A shared vision for First Baptist
- Some meaningful steps we will take in order to fulfill God’s mission for us during the next several years.
