Ministry Leader

Children are a blessing from God and are a very important to the First Missionary Baptist Church of Biloxi family. We value children and their relationship with God and seek to provide a welcoming and nurturing community where all children can grow spiritually. From the youngest to the oldest we seek to encourage children to know and love the Lord through the teaching of His Word and the influence of godly role models who demonstrate His love and acceptance. In our children’s ministries we make it our aim to lay a foundation upon which God-centered lives are built. We teach our children through age-appropriate lessons not only to know, but to trust the Lord – to not only receive from Him, but to give their lives in grateful worship and service.

Greetings in the Name of our Captain, Jesus Christ and welcome aboard as we once again set sail, at sea! It is exciting times here at the First Missionary Baptist Church as we invite all of our Youth ages 3-18 back to Church. The youth staff have worked untiringly to generate new and innovate ideas that will keep the interest of our youth, while providing them with their spiritual development and growth. Together with the Sunday School and VBS, we have collaborated in providing a little of everything to include but not limited to: Biblical Class, numerous of activities and recreation for a total of 1 ½ hour. Your child will not have time to get bored, so welcome back, “Get on Aboard as we set sail, At Sea!

Our schedule for now will be every second and third Sundays in the month. It is requested that your child is pre-registered as soon as possible that the staff will make all the necessary provisions to accommodate them. If you wish to volunteer, we are certainly looking forward to having you serve.

This has been a stressful two-year relating to the Covid-19 pandemic for our children. We will follow the CDC guidelines very closely for their safety. It is encouraging that all youth have received their vaccination; however, mask will be worn when it deems necessary by the staff. Also, mask and hand sanitizers are available. Should your child experience any symptoms related to the covid-19 or such while in our care, we will notified you immediately. Or, if your child is in quarantine, we would like for some information regarding your child as we may seek to secure and make safe. Any question, please see members of the FMBC Health Ministry.
