Attending any church for the very first time can be a bit overwhelming. At First Baptist Church, we’ll make you feel at home. Plan to arrive about fifteen minutes early so we can help you find your way.
Parking
We have parking spaces on Church Street and Broad Street that are designated for GUESTS, so please take advantage of those spaces. Excellent public parking is also available around our church. Feel free to take advantage of the City Parking Deck across the street from our worship sanctuary. Parking is free, and our Families with Kids entrance is just across the street from the parking deck.
What to Wear
We encourage people to “come as you are.” You will find our worshipers dressed in casual to “Sunday best”. Typical dress would be “business casual.” So, just come!
Where Do I Bring My Kids?
The easiest entrance for families with kids is from the Broad Street entrance. As you enter the building, you will be welcomed by our hospitality team who will help you check in your children.
Security
The safety and security of your child is of the highest priority while you are worshiping with us. When you first arrive, our hospitality team will guide you through our check-in process. Each child receives a check-in security tag with a matching receipt for the parent. When you return to pick up your child, you must present your security receipt. All of our teachers and leaders working with minors have passed background screenings and have been approved by church staff. You can be confident that your child is safe as you worship and attend Bible study. Complete our Family Pre-Registration Form to quickly move through our registration on your first visit.
