Below are the high school graduates for whom we received pictures. All graduates will be honored during worship on Sunday, May 17.
We are a Baptist church
but not the kind most people expect.
Welcome
Every person—whatever your background or identity—is welcome here. Not as an exception, but as part of who we are. We value the richness of tradition while also making room for questions, for diverse perspectives, for people who have been told they don’t belong.
Invited into something that lasts, we are shaped by a calling:
to love God with our whole selves,
to love our neighbors without condition,
and to live that love in ways that change us all.
Worship & Weekly Rhythms
Church life at FBG is sustained by its weekly rhythms.

Nursery care (3 years & under) is available during worship. Worship Care is offered for 4k and 5k children who begin in worship and then transition to Children’s Worship and Worship Care.
Wednesdays@First
5:00-6:00pm Dinner
6:00-7:00pm Studies, children’s ministry, and youth gatherings
Wednesdays bring the campus to life as children, youth and adults gather at the same time.
Community for Every Season of Life
Connection at FBG grows over time. Some begin in a Sunday School class. Others find their place in Youth Family, music ministry, mission projects, or small groups.
From infants to older adults, young professionals to retirees, there are communities shaped around learning, service and friendship. Whether you are raising children, navigating career transitions, exploring faith, or entering retirement, you will find spaces where relationships become more than passing connections.
Community Engagement
Faith here is more than words
It moves into the streets, comes alongside neighbors and partners for the common good.
Members of FBG pack and deliver weekend food bags for local schools, serve at the Project Host soup kitchen, build with Habitat for Humanity, and participate in justice efforts through GOAL. Through the Faith Fund and the Lula Whilden Offering, the church sustains long-term partnerships with local and global ministries.
