Mission Statement: Making Biblical disciples who love, serve, and share Christ with all people.

Our church actively engages in the work of the Great Commission through a variety of opportunities, activities and special events. All ages are involved in mission work and missions are incorporated into every ministry provided by our church so that no matter where your interests lie, there is a place for you to participate in helping others to know Jesus.

Our Mission Committee directs our church’s mission projects. They have directed our church to participate with or to support not only missionaries but also organizations that have a Christian emphasis such as Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Deep Well, Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child, Pregnancy Center of the Lowcountry, Gideons International, and others. Our church provides outreach opportunities to those outside our church walls with activities like the Easter Sunrise Service on the beach, Trunk or Treat, and mission trips. Our youth and children are also actively involved with hands-on mission projects.

Missionaries

Our church supports missionaries who are on the mission field throughout the world spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In addition, our church has chosen two special missionaries to financially support, one working in the United States and one working in South America.

Outreach Events and Activities

In the summer, our church has sponsored some camps for outside churches to bring their youth to Hilton Head, stay on our church campus for a week, and learn about Jesus and mission work.

We also send teams every summer to the church our pastor planted in Calgary, Alberta, Canada to assist with camps for kids, and we are planning our first vision trip for our partnership with Wycliffe translators in Guatemala.

Easter Sunrise Service

Each year First Baptist Church Hilton Head Island sponsors an Easter Sunrise service on the beach. Guests to the island are invited to join us on the beach just prior to sunrise, to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, in front of the Marriott’s Grande Ocean Resort. You may park at the church and take the bike path to the Alder Lane Beach Access lane next to the Marriott to the beach.

Christmas Eve Service

On Christmas Eve every year, First Baptist Church Hilton Head Island invites guests to join us for our Annual Christmas Eve Candlelight Service. The service is held in the sanctuary on December 24th.

The Mission of First Baptist Church of Hilton Head Island is:

Making Biblical disciples who love, serve and share Christ with all people.
