First Baptist Church of St. James City

Christians are called "Believers" for a reason. We not only believe there is a God, but we believe he loves us and takes care of us. In the midst of these very uncertain times it's easy for our hearts to become so anxious that we tend to forget that God said he would never leave us or forsake us. But, that's what he said! Our God is a God who is always there. Even when times are dark. And with the recent news of the Corona virus sweeping the world, and every facet of our lives... being affected in negative ways, it certainly seems like it's dark. But, my encouragement to my church family and everyone reading this is to remember the words of Jesus when he said: "if our heavenly father takes care of the birds of the air, how much more will he take care of us?" God will take care of us! Having said that, while God will do his part in taking care of us, we are expected to do our part as well. We have a responsibility to our families, neighbors and our fellow man to do everything in our power to limit the spread of this virus. In light of all the closures taking place all over the country and as a response to the president's address to the nation to not assemble as large groups to try and curb the spread of the virus, we, like most other places of worship have made the difficult decision to temporarily suspend all of our regular meetings and worship services until the end of March. However, we will be live streaming the Sunday morning messages from the church at 10am on those Sundays. Also, I will be live streaming our Wednesday night bible study at 6:30 pm. So, tune in and we will still be able to worship together on the Lord's day and at prayer meeting. Until then, keep the faith and may God's protection and blessings be upon us all at this time. - pastor Larry

Faith for the Future

First Baptist of St. James City is embarking on a building program. We have been blessed with steady growth and with steady growing comes growing pains.

Therefore FBC is starting a building fund to assist with the expansion of our church’s facility in the foreseeable future,  a building committee has been formed.

This expansion is in response to current needs for a multi-purpose outdoor Kitchen and a new Shed. Our church is growing and this new outdoor facility will serve as important gathering site for  fellowships and our outreach ministries. This expansion of our building will expand and strengthen the missions of our church.

Financial, contributions, donations or pledges to the building fund for this future expansion, which are "over and above" your regular giving, are gratefully received and appreciated.

This truly is an exciting time for our church, one of great opportunity. As we work to fulfill the dream of adding to our facilities please pray for the future of our church and all the ministries that are offered.

We will need your prayers, patience and support as we proceed with this project.
