Pastor Greg Retires July 9th
It is with heavy hearts that the congragation at First Baptist say farwell to Dr. Barmer as pastor. Greg is retiring from the pastor position and encouraging the body of Christ here to listen to where God wants to take us and who he has to lead us in the next chapter of our journey with Christ. It is God's ministry and He will bring about His desires if we will pray and seek His will and not our own.
Thankfully Greg and Lisa will still be in the Washington area and will be a part of our FBC family.
On August 20th the church shared a time of celebration with fun, fellowship and ice cream following a commissioning and prayer service for the Pastor Search Team.
The name Stellar for our VBS 2023 was very fitting because we did have a Stellar week!We had a blessed week of learning more about Shining Jesus’ Light! We averaged 148 kids and 85 volunteers.The boy and girls raised $2,335.61 for Bright Futures of Beaufort County!
To our church family, thank you for your continued support of the VBS ministry. We are thankful to continue Shining Jesus’ Light in our community.

The Church Renewal Journey experience allowed us to go deep as the body of Christ and our desire is to go deeper!
Growing together as the body of Christ
The Church Renewal Journey is a weekend designed to reawaken the church to our purpose and passion, to refresh us with a godly perspective, and renew our love for Christ. This was a timely opportunity to celebrate Christ as we move toward our celebration of our 200 year history of God's provision and sustaining power.
“Repent and return…, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.” Acts 3.19
Over the course of the weekend families received Biblical restoration and fellowship, as well as some good food. Every family member, adult, youth, and children, were involved in sessions aimed at their station in life.
GLORY BE TO GOD for His faithfullness!
