High School Sunday Night Discipleship is now known as "The Tribe." The name of our group comes out of 1 Peter
2:9 stating that "You are a chosen tribe,
a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you
may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into His
marvelous light." The Tribe meets Sunday evenings from 5:30-7pm at the Mims'
residence for all those in grades 9th-12th. This is time of fun and fellowship followed
by diving into God's Word. Come and be a part of The Tribe!
Middle School Sunday Night Discipleship is now known as "Momentum." This group is a time where middle school students can gain momentum in their spiritual walk through exciting activities with one another and through innovative Bible study. Momentum meets Sunday evenings from 4:30-6pm in room 131 for all those in grades 6th-8th.

The ladies at FBC were inspired by Beth Moore during our simulcast back in August to memorize scripture. "Delight yourselves in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart (Psalm. 37:4)." What better way to delight ourselves than by immersing ourselves in His Word. Would you like to delight yourself in the Lord...then challenge yourself! Memorize a verse every two weeks and join the fellowship of women who are drawing close to the Lord by burning His Word on their heart. Click here to join us!
