Our Mission

LOVING JESUS • LIVING FOR JESUS • LEADING OTHERS TO JESUS
We are convinced the Church is more than a social organization; it is the organic, living, life–changing culture–transforming extension of Jesus Christ. Our to–the–core commitment is to be Christ for our communities; to think what Jesus would think; to feel what Jesus would feel; and do what Jesus would do. We are motivated by strong convictions and values. We are convinced that Jesus is Supreme. He is worth our highest affection and insists on being Master of our entire life. Even though our current culture espouses a “many–paths–to–God” theology, we are absolutely convinced that the sacrificial death of Jesus is the only path to God.

Visit our WEBsite for more detailed information: http://firstbaptistjeff.org. The MISSION COMMITTEE at First Baptist is called the Mission "GO" Team. We are guided by Acts 1:8 – "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." The definition of a FBC mission shall be any outreach ministry/activity that spreads the Gospel and positively touches the lives of people outside the four walls of our church – locally, regionally, and internationally. The purpose of the Mission Committee is: To be good stewards of God’s money by providing funding for existing mission work, new works, and Christ–led organizations. To encourage and equip all church members to grow in mission awareness and become involved in FBC–led missions. To support those who are "sent", set apart for the distinct task that is fulfilled beyond the boundaries of the church. The Mission "GO" Team has the following mission trips planned: The 2018 mission trip will be to Cap Haitien, Haiti. We will be working with our International Missionaries Nzunga and Kihomi. LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS: Choices for Women Resource Center exists to demonstrate and share the life-changing message of Jesus Christ by providing practical help and loving support to those facing an unplanned pregnancy. Center for Lay Ministries is to provide services to vulnerable populations in the local community with compassion, dignity and respect. Pure is an initiative inspired by the result of so many young lives being shattered by broken relationships, broken hearts, broken bodies and crisis pregnancies. It is our desire and vision to transform our communities by creating a culture that embraces sexual integrity and respect for life in all relationships. Mercy's Edge Ministries is a Christ-Centered Transitional Program with a focus on spiritual and character development. MUSIC MINISTRY at First Baptist praises God in many musical ways. > Adult Choir – Our Adult Choir sing anthems and hymns for the Sunday Service. No try–outs necessary! Just bring your voice and your love for the Lord. Practice is at 8:10 p.m. on Wednesdays. The Adult Choir also backs up our Praise and Worship group and celebrates Christmas with a cantata. > Charming Chimers – Learn to play percussion–type instruments such as hand chimes, xylophones and hand bells. No experience necessary! > Praise Band – Sunday worship starts with praise and worship music from our outstanding praise band, Testify! Contemporary songs mixed with popular classics fill the sanctuary and welcome the Holy Spirit. The band consists of seasoned musicians and singers. If you have the gift of music, join in, in singing God’s praises.

BELIEFS

First Baptist of Jeffersonville is truly a family. We are rich in the relationships that matter most – rich in our relationship with God through Jesus Christ, as well as in our relationships with each other as members in the body of Christ. Growing together, we worship, we serve, we laugh, we cry, we learn and we reach out to our world with life–transforming truth. Truth based on the Bible and centered on the gospel, the sacrificial death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. Truth that challenges us to be better followers of Christ and ambassadors of Heaven. Our doors are open to you. Our hearts are open, too. If you’ve been thinking, praying, searching and hoping for a place to belong, we say welcome!
