A transitioned First Baptist Church that is focused on discipleship and community. Pastor has been at the church for 18 years, having led the transition to a modern missional minded, outward focused church family that has a strong reputation for loving each other and the community. Ministries are very family related and organic in nature as much as possible. Sunday mornings are for LifeGroups and Worship Gathering. Sunday evenings are for family time at home, with a monthly church wide fellowship designed to invite the unchurched. Wednesday evenings are age divided for youth, children, preschool, and adult bible studies. Discipleship groups and bible study groups meet throughout the week in our multiple buildings, in homes, at restaurants, or online. FBC Harlingen is a very healthy church with a sweet spirit of family and togetherness.
