As our church grows in size, it becomes even more important to be part of a smaller group, where you can make friends, build deeper relationships and strengthen your faith and knowledge of the Bible. That's what Life Groups at First Baptist Church are designed to do.

Some Life Groups meet on Sunday mornings at 9:00 or 10:30 a.m., studying a variety of topics and books of the Bible. Click here for a more complete list of Sunday morning Life Groups.

Other Life Groups meet in homes during the week, or on Wednesday nights here at church.

For more information on Life Groups at FBC, contact Life Group Coordinator Sean Grier at zealot4truth@defend the way.com  or call the church at 330/725-5853.

The following Life Groups are offered for adults each Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. or 10:30 a.m., running at the same time as our worship services so you can attend both class and a service. The topics listed were current as of June 2010. No need to register; just come!
