Belong & Grow_______________

If you are looking for a community of faith, know that the First Baptist Church of Evans welcomes you to learn more about us. Feel free to call the church office, or better still, bring your family to worship with us and meet some of our good folks.

One way FBC Evans may be distinctive is that we try as often as possible to bring together people of all ages. We feel it's important for our spiritual and social lives that young children, teens, and adults of all ages have opportunities to enjoy each other's company and learn from one another in a safe environment. We do have separate classes for young children, and we offer childcare for preschoolers during our worship services. We also offer opportunities for children and teens, as well as senior adults, to learn and have fun just among their peers. But as often as possible we try to cross generational lines and help folks of different ages be together in worship, learning, and ministry. Why do we feel this is important? Here are a few reasons:

Children get to grow up as part of the whole church family, not always segregated among their peers. They get many opportunities to see and be loved by older church family members and watch them as they live their faith.
Parents and children can be together in some classes and projects if they wish.
For families who live far away from extended family, their children can find surrogate grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins in the church family. Young parents can find mentors among older adults. And senior adults who live far from their own grandchildren can befriend the young ones in the church family.

Whether or not you're part of our church family, if we can support you or your family in life's challenges, please know you're welcome to call on us.

Our Sunday Morning Bible Study offers classes for all ages from infants to senior adults. They meet at 9:30 a.m. You're invited to visit and join a class at any time. Each of our Sunday Morning Bible Study groups is open to any person age 12 and older. We are intentionally setting aside divisions of age, gender, and marital status so we can learn from and minister to each other without allowing those differences to be a barrier. To find out more, call the church office or come to the Welcome Center on Sunday morning before 9:30 a.m.

Prayer and Bible study is the focus of our Wednesday evening gatherings at 6:00 PM.

Our Senior Adult Ministry plans events, activities, meals, and trips for the enjoyment of anyone who considers him/herself to be a senior adult.
