The Preschool ministry is for all children from newborns up through age 5 and is available during worship gatherings. It is our desire to come alongside parents in nurturing the faith of their children. Our responsibility is to model and teach Biblical truth in an attitude of frequent prayer, spiritual atmosphere, Biblical and God-centered storytelling and worship.

First Baptist Church recognizes that preschoolers need to grow spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically and socially. We facilitate this by providing a biblically-based, age-appropriate, pre-academic education ministry for each child.

We want to raise up a generation of kids who become passionate about Jesus and the Word, become fully devoted followers of Him, and carry on the discipleship process as teens and adults spreading a passion for the supremacy of Christ to all the nations. We believe the most important spiritual leaders in a child’s life are the parents, and as parents model a lifestyle of worship and Bible study, kids will see how important making disciples really is.

The Children's Ministry at First Baptist Church exists to awaken a passion in children for the glory of God. We intentionally train children in the faith, giving them a firm foundation, and focus on teaching God’s Word in such a way that they will accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

The Student Ministry at First Baptist Church or REFUGE exists to help students glorify Christ by making disciples of all nations. Through Worship, Small Groups, and Missions we encourage students to grow in their relationship with God and to trust His plan for their future.

Small groups and worship gatherings for students meet weekly in the Youth Department for the purpose of life application, community building, and accountability... in other words, discipleship! They study the Bible, hold each other accountable, serve together, and even hang out at other times in the week.

First Baptist Church's Young Adult Ministry (YAM) exists to encourage young adults in continuing to glorify Christ by making disciples of all nations. Our desire is to see the Gospel of Jesus Christ reign supreme throughout the lives of young people in Greeneville, Greene County and around the world.

We long to see college students, single careered individuals, and young families impacting their local environment and the nations with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe the most effective means to accomplish this is to lead them to a small group where they can begin showing and teaching the Word to one another while sharing the Word and serving the world together.

It is our goal that every adult who attends our worship services would become an active part of a Sunday school group where they can join us in making disciples of all nations. All of our Sunday school classes are built around studying God's Word together and are focused on 'Sharing the Word', 'Showing the Word', 'Teaching the Word', and 'Serving the World' both locally and globally. We would love to partner with you to find the best group for you to effectively grow as a disciple of Christ and to make disciples of all nations.
