Welcome to First Baptist Matthews

First Baptist Matthews meets in the heart of town on South Trade Street. On Sunday you can expect clear preaching from the Bible, congregational singing, and a people centered welcome. Greeters offer directions and help families find classrooms. If you visit for the first time, stop by Guest Central after the service. You will meet leaders who listen and give simple next steps. You can confirm gathering times and plan your visit at fbcmatthews.org.

Discipleship moves beyond Sunday. Adults join small groups that read the Bible, pray, and support one another. Students gather weekly for teaching and real conversation. Children learn the gospel through age appropriate lessons. If you want to grow in serving, you can join local outreach and short term mission efforts. The church aims for steady faithfulness. Read the Bible. Pray with others. Love your neighbors. As you do, you will find people who walk with you through joy and hardship.

If you are new to the area, consider a simple plan. Arrive a little early, park near the main entrance, and meet a greeter by the doors. Attend the service, then introduce yourself at the welcome area. Ask how to join a group that fits your schedule. The team will give you a straightforward path. You can always explore messages and events online before you arrive. Start at fbcmatthews.org and take your next step.
