     -Adult 1 (medium age) led by Gabe Saxon- second floor of the Education Building

WORSHIP

The Worship Ministry of First Baptist Marianna exists to glorify God and to lead His people in worshiping Him in spirit and truth.  Whether it is through our choir ministry or in a Sunday morning worship gathering, we understand that God has called us to sing His praises (Psalm 30:4) and to declare the excellencies of Christ (I Peter 2:9).  We are always looking for new members for our worship team.  If you have an interest in being a part of the worship ministry as an instrumentalist, singer, or a member of the audio/visual team, please reach out to Pastor Steve Moore.

OUTREACH

There are many ways that First Baptist Marianna seeks to fulfills its mission to Love and Engage.  Each  year, the church is involved in reaching out to the community through outreach events such as Community Block Parties, Fall Festivals, Upward Basketball, Men's Wild Game Dinners and Vacation Bible School.  While those events take place on the church campus, there are many other events that seek to reach people throughout the community and around the world.  Mission trips, both domestic and foreign, local festivals, teacher appreciation events, community music concerts and ministries to local prisons are are apart of the outreach of First Baptist Marianna.

Our CR Launch Team is presently training for this ministry to begin sometime in the summer of 2023.  For more information, contact our Celebrate Recovery Group Leader, Fred Banuelos, through our Church Office - 870-295-9131
