Fellowship is devotion and commitment to a covenant relationship of love, support and accountability between and among the people of God. At First Baptist we accomplish fellowship goals through small groups. Families organized into neighborhood groupings are called Family Care Circles. Members who share common interests are called NetCare groups.

As a member focused, purpose driven congregation, we are aggressive about providing opportunities for serving as well as insuring those necessary services are available. Small groups enable us to be as effective as possible in providing a caring environment for our members. Success is in the hands of every member. Every member is responsible for maintaining a connected relationship with a small group of other members.

Family Care Circles, led by lay persons, give members greater opportunities to know one another. In small clusters of families, our members learn more than each other's names. A true sense of community exists. Sharing joys, sorrows, recreation, amusement and education in small groups strengthens individual faith and witness and strengthens community relationships.

NetCare is a small group ministry, which offers members of the same interest, professions, lifestyles, etc., to meet and learn more about each other, and to gain strength from each other.

Our continuing fellowship goal is to maintain a small, local church atmosphere with Community Building capacity of a large, corporate sized regional Church. Every member needs access, support, opportunities and information. The best way to supply these needs is through cooperation and shared responsibility.
