Music Ministry
The Music Ministry is an active and vital part of the life of First Baptist. From Sunday morning worship to special programs and events to Broadway on Main, music is a tool that God graciously uses to speak to us and through us. With a host of very talented members we are able to enjoy beautiful and meaningful musical worship. God has blessed and continues to bless the Music Ministry of First Baptist. The following is a list of the different groups we currently have. We would love to have you join any of these groups. Please contact Leslie Halfacre, the Minister of Music if you have any questions.
