What Can I Expect?
We gather together as a family every Sunday so we can be equipped to scatter together across our community during the week. Our Sundays feature relevant biblical teaching that speaks directly to all facets of life, relevant music that features contemporary worship songs with upbeat traditional hymns of the faith creating a balance of worship styles that help us to encounter and worship God, and relevant, age-appropriate groups.
No dress code! We welcome everything from blue jeans and t-shirts to suits and ties, and everything in between. Come dressed comfortably.
For your convenience, there are reserved “Guest Parking” spaces for visitors available immediately in front of the entry doors. There is ample parking available on our campus.
There are also missional community groups that meet throughout the week, who are on mission together to make disciples of Jesus in the places where we live, work and play.
Thanks for taking the time to visit our site. We hope you’ll visit us in person soon. Our goal is to make Friendship Baptist Church a place for you to continue taking steps in your faith journey.

WHAT ABOUT MY NEWBORN TO PRESCHOOL AGE CHILDREN (Birth to 4 years)
A child's world is made up of relationships, and we want to ensure each child has the opportunity to develop personal friendships with God and other children. Our children's ministries are lead by committed volunteers who work with each child to help them learn about God and His love for them.
There are many opportunities for your child to learn about the message of God's love. We minister to all of the children using a simple, delightful enlightening approach. Promiseland is built around God's love and biblical truth. It provides a safe and enjoyable place where every child can grow in their relationships with each other and God.
We provide childcare for all services Sunday morning. There are separate nurseries based on age. During worship services, we share the love of Jesus through bible stories, playing, rocking, and caring for the needs of children. Promiseland is available for you:
Sunday Worship Services 8:15 & 11:00am

Adult GrowGroups
The Bible says, that life is to be experienced in relationship with Jesus Christ and one another. As a result, our vision is to have everyone who attends Friendship Baptist Church intentionally connected to one another on a weekly basis through biblical-caring communities that promote transformation, caring relationships, prayer & a missionary-mindset that compels us to serve and see others introduced to Jesus.
GrowGroups meet from 9:45am to 10:45am. There are a variety of topics and groups for your consideration.
