Mission:
We are committed to expressing our love relationship with God trough worship and learning to surrender to His will, and by growing in our relationship with Him through daily discipleship. We express our love relationship with one another through caring, accountable partnerships and loving acts of service, and we extend God's love to others by sharing the Good News with all people.


Our Vision:
First Baptist Church of Newark, California (FBCN) will establish its identity in our community as a God-focus, Christ-centered, Spirit-filled body which honors and lives by the Word of God.

FBCN members will practice God's grace and truth through loving acts of service and sharing the Word of God in the power of the Holy Spirit. Through continued spiritual growth and increasing Christ-likeness, we will become faithful witness for Christ.

FBCN will be a training center in a safe environment for Christians of all ages and stages of spiritual maturity. The five fundamental functions of the New Testament church (evangelism, fellowship, worship, discipleship, ministry) are taught, modeled, learned and applied. Each member is tutored and supported on a life-long adventure of fulfilling Christ's Great Commission.

God's name will be honored by many and respected by all. His values will shine, our community will become a safer place to live, and God's kingdom will grow both here and abroad.
