At First Baptist, everything we do supports our mission to help people find and follow Jesus. The reason we desire to renovate the interior of our student ministries building is to strengthen our mission to help the next generation find and follow Jesus. That’s why we are taking this bold step of faith to Launch Out into the deep together. We believe that our church’s future hinges on raising up the next generation of church members, church leaders, missionaries, Bible printers, and Bible translators. That’s what makes this step of faith so important.

Just as Jesus called His disciples to “launch out into the deep,” we believe He is calling us to step out in faith and invest in our future. By repurposing our space, we can better serve the growing number of young families in our community and ensure a safe, welcoming environment for our children and volunteers. This is an investment in the future—providing God’s Word to our children week after week in these crucial years so that we can continue to provide God’s Word to the world, year after year.

Will you join me on this voyage? I ask you to pray for this initiative and seek how the Lord may be leading your family to “Launch Out” in faith. What boat or net might He be asking you to devote to our Captain so that the generations to come will find and follow Jesus? What better cause can you join than partnering with Jesus to seek and to save the next generation!
