AWANA is collecting nonperishable food items for the Augusta Caring Center during the month of March. You can leave your donations on the table in the lobby on the T&T or Sparks side of the table as the two groups are competing to see who has the most pounds of food donated.
Thank you!
“Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.”
At First Baptist, we place high value on our children. We believe they are a big part of the church today and a very important part of our future. Whether you are checking out our Sunday morning service or joining our Wednesday evening programs, we are so glad you are here!
When you visit, please fill out a connect card so we can have your best contact information on file. Greeters can help direct you to classroom locations.
We invite kids to join their guardians for worship before joining the Pastor on stage for a Children’s Message. Then kids are dismissed to attend Kids Connect, a time of bible study and activities according to their age.
Now you can check your kids in easily via the app on your phone, or at our lobby check-in stations.
To make things smoother, please sign up before Sunday morning—this will speed up check-in! At pickup, simply match your sticker with your child’s to ensure a safe release.
We appreciate your patience as we get everyone comfortable with the system. Let’s make Sunday safer and more organized!

CHILDREN'S SAFETY POLICY
First Baptist Church puts the safety of all children and youth FIRST! All adults working with children or youth will have a routine background check.
Wherever your child may be on their spiritual path, our Children Ministries provide a supportive community with a wealth of opportunities for personal growth. We aspire to strengthen each child's confidence and joy in Jesus Christ - at every point in their life, and encourage personal and spiritual growth through worship, Sunday School and other programs and outreach opportunities in our church and community.
We know that it is very hard to make a decision on finding a home church. I invite you to visit our church with your family and allow your children to experience some of our great programs.
