Facility Campaign
God has blessed FBC with a fantastic campus! Over the history of our church, this campus has been used for the glory of God and will continue to be used for that purpose. Our great challenge is that the financial demand of deferred maintenance greatly exceeds our giving.
Please consider prayerfully how you can give above and beyond your tithes and offerings.
From our Christian County Baptist Association (CCBA)
