Matthew 28 tells us to go and make disciples of all nations. In October 2025, we will be given an opportunity to live into that call through an international mission trip to Honduras. This mission trip is open to anyone ages 10 and older. We will be doing a variety of work from food distribution to construction to children’s ministry. If you are interested in learning more about the trip and/or signing up, there will be an interest meeting after the service on March 23 in the FLC.  Contact Nick Poole for more information.

Due to the lack of heat in the sanctuary, we are meeting in Combined Services in the gym throughout the month of March.

Free Friday night meals are served to our neighbors by The Longer Table ministry.

Hope Lifters is a bi-monthly support group for all those grieving the loss of a loved one.  It meets on the first and third Thursdays of each month in room 203 of the Family Life Center. The sessions are designed to help people process grief through education, support, and friendship. Since we all grieve for different lengths of time, the loss could have happened recently or in years past. The group is faith-based and open to the community. There is no cost to join.

Join us for this brief Ash Wednesday service in the Encouragers Room. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the season of Lent. The ashes, made from the previous year’s Palm Sunday leaves, are spread in a cross pattern on our foreheads as a symbol for our grief for sin which separates us from God. Lent is a season of penance, reflection, and fasting which prepares us for Christ’s Resurrection on Easter Sunday through which we attain redemption.

New Beginnings was established in 2022 to provide friendship, community, and spiritual growth opportunities for women in First Baptist Church and the Maryville area who find themselves alone in life’s journey.
