Through the years our members have held positions of leadership and participated actively in the many facets of life at First Baptist. Today we maintain deep bonds of loyalty to our church and each other, with close personal ties of friendship, fellowship and service. We have a very active well-organized network of care-giving and outreach. We contribute regularly, as a class, to various mission projects, and meet socially several times during the year, including frequent day trips.
