Thank you for visiting Jacksonville First Baptist Church's informational page.

Jacksonville First is a "Kingdom Church!" Our goal is to impact not only our community but our world as well. As we bring about change in individual lives, we will change our church, community, and world. We are a church that meets the needs of all age groups with a variety of ministry programs. Where we are different from other churches is what we expect of our members. At Jacksonville First we expect our members to be a part of our mission which is the "Great Commission." If you want to be a part of a living community of faith, Jacksonville First may just be the church for you.

If we can minister to you or with you, please contact us. Don't forget to visit our church's Web site.
