Building Hope, Building Hospitality, Building for Future
Proposed Welcome Center & ADA Mobility Upgrades

Hope is such an encouraging word! Hope is what keeps us going. It helps us get out of bed each new day, because there is something worth living for. Hope has eluded so many people. Maybe it’s because they looked for hope in a relationship that let them down, or a career that left them wanting. But reality is still the same... everyone needs hope. We believe that hope’s foundation is found in something bigger than ourselves. We need each other, but together we need God. To that end, we believe God is calling us to do something tangible about that right here in our communities!
 
The population of our immediate area is growing, a growth that is projected to increase. With that growth, God will introduce us to new friends who are looking for hope. We want to make room for them. We have been talking this year about how we can “make room for God” in our lives. A big part of that is making room for the people God sends to us. Making room to welcome them. Making room to get to know them. Making room that is easily accessible, especially for those with mobility issues or special needs.
 
For that reason, we are proposing the construction of a Welcome Center and a complete ADA mobility upgrade for our entire facility. We are calling it...
 
Building Hope – Building Hospitality – Building for Heaven
 
Romans 12:12–13 (ESV) “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.”
 
In those verses, the Apostle Paul was talking to believers in the church about how to behave like Christians. In fact, that’s the actual heading in my Bible... “Behave like Christians.” We hope you will join us on this journey to build hope, hospitality, and Heaven. Let’s do all we can to make Heaven as crowded as possible! And until then, let’s bring the hope and hospitality of Jesus Christ to the people God sends our way.

Thank you for prayerfully considering how God may want you or your family to participate. Pledge cards are available at the Welcome Center and will help us to estimate and plan this project. 

You can give a one-time gift or set up recurring donations ... chose "Welcome Center & ADA Upgrade" on the pull-down menu of funds.

Early Childhood Ministries at FBC


First Baptist Church of Hurricane is committed to partner with families in building a spiritual foundation to begin a lifetime of following Jesus. It is our heart to Connect all Preschool Children and their families to Jesus Christ, through worship, learning and ministry to others. It is our hope that your child will learn three basic truths: God made me, God loves me and Jesus wants to be my forever friend.

How do we do this? We strive to create an atmosphere where children can learn Bible truths in ways that are physically and developmentally appropriate, infant – preschool (4-5 yrs old).

We are committed to making sure your child is safe and secure when they are left in our care. All parents are asked to fill out an ID Tag that goes on your child. This tag has information about your child and allows you to keep us up to date about any changes on a regular basis. For safety purposes we do ask that you show the tag to the teacher in order to retrieve your child. Also, all surfaces and toys are disinfected frequently for the health of your children.

Finally, all our volunteers genuinely love preschoolers and believe learning to follow Jesus should be fun. We have a lot of hands on activities, music, games and laughter to help your child experience and apply their weekly lesson to their life. Come and experience the Joy of our Preschool Department at the First Baptist Church of Hurricane anytime.
