Our Vision & Values

"What comes into our minds when
we think about God is the most
important thing about us." - A.W. Tozer

Who we are

Welcome to First Baptist Church!

First Baptist Church extends a warm welcome to you! We are a multi-generational church body dedicated to honoring Jesus Christ and living according to His Word. We believe the church isn't made up of a building — but a people. And we are a church that loves and ministers to people!
No matter your age in life or stage of life - we are here to introduce you to the marvelous love of Jesus Christ, help you grow in your relationship with God, and encourage you to discover His purpose for your life.
So no matter where you are on your journey - WELCOME! We are glad to help you take your next step with Him!

What We Value

Our ministry is built on five core values:
Worship – Honoring God with our lives

Evangelism – Sharing the good news of Jesus

Discipleship – Growing in faith and truth

Fellowship – Building authentic relationships

Ministry – Serving others in love

Ministries for Every Stage of Life

FBC Purvis provides opportunities for children, youth, and adults to grow during both our Sunday morning services, our Sunday night service, and our mid-week gathering. Also, from preschool to senior adults, we offer age-specific ministries designed to encourage spiritual growth and connection.

Real Faith. Real People.

At FBC, we believe in common-sense Christianity—a real, authentic faith that doesn’t get caught up in religious non-sense. We want you to feel free to learn, to grow, to try, to attempt things for God’s Kingdom - and if you fail, to know that you are surrounded by God’s grace and our member’s love, encouragement, and help to get back up and keep working for Him!

We extend a warm welcome to you - Come be a part of the family at First Baptist Church. We’d love to meet you this Sunday!
