Marion baptist Association member churches demonstrate their love for God and people through the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The word "gospel" simply means "good news". The good news is that God came to earth in the form of a human person, named Jesus Christ. Jesus lived among us, was tempted by Satan, crucified on on the cross and arose from the dead after three days in the tomb. He ascended into Heaven and will return to earth. By dying on the cross, he paid for our sin so that we can receive forgiveness and be redeemed by God.

First Baptist Church Fort McCoy

 

The weekend of May 12-14th, First Baptist Fort McCoy held our annual yard sale to raise funds for Operation Christmas Child. We received donations and invited the community to come. It was a wonderful weekend. We had many volunteers that helped, several of which had formerly attended other churches and have started attending here. I am thankful that God has brought them here. We prayed together before opening each day and asked that God would use us to minister to our community and He did. We had the opportunity to invite many to church, meet needs, and offer hope through prayer for those facing difficult circumstance. God blessed. As a result, some came to church the following Sunday and we raised more funds than we ever have for Operation Christmas Child. Our mission at First Baptist Church is to "Know God, Serve God, and Share God's Love in all we do," and this weekend God blessed, and we were able to do that. 
 
In Christ,
