Kid’s Check In & ChildcareYou might be asking, “Is there something for our kids this morning?” Absolutely! Every child - Birth through 5th Grade - has a secure and special place with great leaders. Preschool through 5th will enjoy lots of fun and activities as they learn God’s Word. You will see the lights and the First Kids logo at the end of the hall as you exit the back of the Worship Center. You can head there now and we will get you checked in and escort you to our First Kids Ministry areas. For more info & to sign-up, visit the First Kids page at bit.ly/kids-checkinfbc.

Thank you for joining us today! We’re glad you’ve made time in your already busy schedule to worship the Lord Jesus Christ at First Baptist Church. We hope you gain a greater understanding of God and First Baptist Church this morning.
