Starting Point

Starting Point is a perfect opportunity for anyone new to First Baptist or looking for a church home. Meet our Pastor and staff and learn more about the mission and ministries of our church. Lunch and childcare provided.

The next Starting Point class is Sunday, August 23. Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the date!


Membership

Traditionally, to join a church, you’d walk the aisle during the time of invitation in a worship service. You can still do so at First Baptist, as we encourage this time of the service to be a meaningful time where you respond in the way God is leading you.

If coming forward and being introduced in front of the church is too intimidating, simply contact us by using the Contact form below to send a message to our team and let us know you want to join. Or, you can call 205.655.2403. Someone will be in touch with you, and we’ll recognize you from your seat in the service you attend.

You can also join at Starting Point, a membership class that is offered periodically throughout the year. Here you’ll meet our Pastor and staff while getting a glimpse of the ministries and mission of our church. You don’t have to join after attending Starting Point, but many do. Watch for information on when our next Starting Point will be.
