Fellowship Opportunities
"So, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God, but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us." 1 Thessalonians 2:8

Fellowship through Small Groups The primary biblical purpose for our small groups is fellowship.  Our greatest desire is that small groups become a place where people can connect with one another and form relationships that help them grow and mature in their faith.  Fellowship is the relational aspect of discipleship. Sunday School Based Small Groups We have SS Based Small Groups for all ages each and every Sunday beginning at 9:45am.  Please visit the Information Booth in our lobby and someone can assist you in finding the best small group that meets all of your family's needs. Home-Based Small Groups These groups are diverse in their make-up.  Before you arrive at one of our Home-Based Small Groups, it would be best to contact the Small Group Host or Small Group Leader first.  They  will be able to let you know if any changes have been made to the schedule.  If you cannot reach the SG Host or SG Leader, please contact our church offices to inquire about Home-Based Small Groups at chris@fbcmtsterling.com.

Fellowship through Membership Church membership is not about having your name in our church database.  It is about a covenantal relationship with other like-minded believers who are committed to the Great Commission. How to Join our Fellowship: If you would like to join the membership of First Baptist Church and covenant with us to fulfill the Great Commission, we invite you to take CLASS 101: Discovering Church Membership.  You will be given an opportunity to meet all of the pastors and to ask questions about our church.  We would like the opportunity to introduce you to our church family on a Sunday morning, so we ask you to "come forward" after the pastor's message.  One of our pastors will stand in front of the pulpit to greet you.

Fellowship through Events Join us this Wednesday, September 20th for the Children of the World Choir live in concert.  This is a free concert with a love offering that will be received. Our Senior Adults take monthly road trips.  Details are available in our weekly newsletter.
