This is an important time for our ministry leaders to connect, collaborate, and discuss the ongoing work of FBCDC. Lunch will be provided.
Bring your toddlers, preschoolers, and energy levels—we'll provide the beverages, simple snacks, and a welcoming space for parents to connect while kids play.

All are invited to join the Chancel Choir to sing for Candlelight Carols, a beloved FBC tradition.
This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with other new faces, hear more about First Baptist's history and mission, and discover the many ways to get involved in the life of our congregation. Whether you've been with us for a few weeks or a few months, we'd love to get to know you better over a meal together.
