Ministries
A Family Ministry
First Baptist Church of Ruskin strives to meet the needs of the entire family from the infant to the mature adult. Whether you are a five-year old child, a ninety-five year old grandmother, a busy mom, or a businessman, we would like you to be a part of our vibrant church family. Here are some opportunities that may interest you and meet your needs.
Mission Outreach
First Baptist is thrilled to be part of the spread of God’s love and gospel around the world. We are active in sending missionaries and supporting missionaries and mission projects with our money and with our prayers. First Baptist supports over 75 missionaries and missions projects. We encourage people to respond to God’s call for laborers, whether it means that they move to a foreign country or live and minister in our own community.
Music & Drama
God-honoring music is something we strive for. Many who attend here at FBC, get involved in our music and drama ministry. Some play their instruments. Some are vocalists. Others are involved in the choir. Still others get involved in drama. These volunteers are an important part of the ministry of First Baptist, using their talents and gifts to glorify God. If you are interested in getting involved, contact us below. We would love to have you as a part of our ministry
Bible Study Groups
Children's Ministry
Children’s Ministry has classes from preschool to 5th grade. Bible lessons are taught in such a way that every child gets to participate and learn. Each of the class teachers are carefully screened and thoroughly trained.
Youth Group
Our youth group, grades 6th through 12th, is starting a new program called “Grow.” They has their own Bible Study on Wednesday nights at 7:00 pm and on Sunday at 9:30 am. Throughout the year, activities are planned ranging from basketball to camp events.
Adult's Ministry
We offer a variety of Sunday Schools for all adults. Topics range from navigating Revelations to young families and college students. Classes meet every Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM. No matter what stage of life, there is something for you. We would love for you to join and can’t wait to meet you!
Just As I Am
Sonshiners
Senior Sonshiners is a ministry for the active mature adults in the South Shore area. They meet from September to May on the first Tuesday of the month for a time of fellowship and fun. In addition to monthly meetings, they also plan a one day trip a month to a place of interest.
