Our Purpose

To worship God, win the lost, disciple believers, minister to physical and spiritual needs, and grow in fellowship with God and others.

For many years, First Baptist Church has been one of the strongest and leading churches in eastern Kentucky. God has blessed us with great leadership, committed workers and a heart for missions. You really must come to Whitesburg and visit our church to know what we mean when we say, "this is a great church." God is still blessing us!

We invite you to browse through our pages and learn what God is doing here in Whitesburg. Feel welcome to sign our Guestbook and share with us your prayer concerns and your praises. We would love to hear from you! First Baptist Church is also a praying church. We sure do believe in the power of prayer. We will be glad to include you and your concerns in our prayer ministry.

We pray that God will smile upon you and will bless your life richly. Enjoy your visit with us!
