"FBC Meals Ministry" hosts a Community Meal on the Third Saturday of each month at 1:00pm in the Lower Fellowship Hall. All are Welcome! A Gospel Message is shared and warm fellowship is enjoyed by all! Many serving opportunities are available - come when you can and leave when you must!
Our "Canine's for Christ Ministry" serves several Richland County Congregant Living Centers by sharing the Unconditional Love of Jesus through the Unconditional Love of Therapy Dogs! The Love of God is so wonderfully felt and enjoyed by all! Our resident Canines are currently Mack & Chloe, two loving Golden Retrievers! (All of our Dogs are Insured, Trained and Certified by the International Canines For Christ Ministry - www.canines4christ.org)
First Baptist Church also partners with 3 local community outreach ministries in an effort to extend our touch to our community with the love of Jesus:
Shelby Help Line Ministries – is a local, Shelby-led ministry that provides food, clothing, counsel, and other need based services to individuals and families living in the Shelby community. First Baptist is one of many area churches partnering with Shelby Help Line Ministries as we together seek to touch those in need with the love of Jesus.
Child Evangelism Fellowship – CEF is actually an international organization with local/area chapters seeking to reach out and touch children in various communities with the love of Christ. First Baptist helps with “5 day clubs” in the summer and other services in local schools, seeking to share the love of Jesus with children in our community.
LifeWise Academy - LifeWise Academy is a "Released Time Religious Instruction" program which exists to reach students K-5 in public schools with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Beginning Fall of 2022, LifeWise Academy curriculum will be offered at the YMCA (adjacent to the School) to every child K-5 having parental consent, who are enrolled in Shelby City Schools. This program is designed with the initiative of leading children in faithful. gospel-centered teaching through the entire Bible in 5 years. Each lesson is centered on Biblical Character Traits and is tied to the broader context of the Gospel - focusing on "God's Plan to rescue His people from sin through the life, death, and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ." Many Volunteer Opportunities exist!
