Our Ministries
"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."
Matthew 28:19-20
Worship Music

Baptist Men
The First Baptist Church of Bladenboro has a very active group of North Carolina Baptist Men which is a ministry of the North Carolina Baptist State Convention. Our men (of all ages) meet on the third Sunday of each month at 6:00 pm for a meal and a program.
The stated purpose of Baptist Men is “to help churches involve their members in missions and ministry. Every Christian is called, gifted, and sent to witness and minister to non-believers everywhere. All people, not just ordained ministers, are equally responsible to be witnesses for Christ.” The Baptist Men’s Mission Statement says “The goal of NC Baptist Men is to help North Carolina churches and associations involve their members (especially men and boys) in missions and ministry.”
The Baptist Men of FBC Bladenboro are extremely active in our handyman ministry. We have built wheelchair ramps and provided handicapped access for dozens of people in Bladen County to allow them to get in and out of their homes. Baptist Men are also very faithful in visiting and caring for the sick and homebound in our congregation.
Women's Missionary Union
The WMU of First Baptist Church has a long history of leading our church in many of our mission efforts. Its purpose is to provide opportunities that will involve everyone in the church in the mission of God. It helps individuals to personally experience missions through witnessing, ministering to needs, praying, and giving through offerings. It helps individuals learn about and support the work being done by missionaries, nationals, and volunteers. Our WMU prays, gives, goes, learns, nurtures, and teaches.
The WMU sponsors and oversees the mission involvement of our children and teenagers through Mission Friends (ages 2-4), Kids-in-Action (ages 5-12), and Youth (ages 13-18). A missions emphasis continues for the adult women in our congregation through the Women on Mission organizations. Members in these groups are involved in many missions projects such as World Hunger Sunday, Baptist Women’s World Day of Prayer, Week of Prayer for International Missions and the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering, Focus Day for WMU, Week of Prayer for North American Missions and the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering, and a Christmas-in-August party.
