Worship Ministry

At First Baptist Church Weslaco, we believe worship involves "Doing God's Story" (Robert Weber) through acts of remembrance and anticipation in every aspect of our lives.  Therefore, the Worship Team leads our community of faith in celebrating God's story using our God-given gifts and talents.  Those who serve on the Worship Team should view their role as a calling from God. 

For the first 18 months after Weslaco was founded, all Christian denominations met for worship services in the town’s community center – located at the site of the library-city hall complex a few blocks north of our campus. Then in 1921, an evangelist, Rev. R. L. Cole, and two gospel singers, Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Blankenship, led a revival in Weslaco. Three days after the revival began, 56 people with a Baptist background decided they were in sufficient number to call a conference for the purpose of organizing a church. By the end of their third meeting, their number had grown to 65.

Who We Are:

From that day to the present, the church these people started, First Baptist Church of Weslaco has been an active body of Christ in this community.
