Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get to FBCS?

We are located on Auburn Avenue, directly across from True Value Hardware store, in downtown Swedesboro. For detailed directions click here.

What time should I be there?
Our service begins promptly at 10 AM. Most people arrive 10-15 minutes prior to service to socialize and find seating.  
 
What should I wear?
“We do not have a dress code, but a BLESS Code!” At First Baptist, you will find a variety of dress styles. There are many people who like to dress up and there are many who like to be more casual in their dress. You will see nice suits all the way to jeans. So we would encourage you to dress as you are used to in other churches or whatever makes you comfortable.
 
How would you describe your Sunday service?

Our service begins at 10:00AM. Our purpose is to create an atmosphere where people can experience God’s grace, love and redeeming power for a broken humanity. We typically gather and participate in a time of praise and worship, united in singing together, with the words of each song projected for visibility. We spend time in the scripture, praying for others, proving announcements and celebrating the mission of Christ locally and globally. These elements of our service are then followed by the sermon from our Senior Pastor or on occasion, our Associate Pastor or Ministers.

What do you have for my children?
We have a bi-monthly Children’s Service, designed to provide a parallel lesson in terms that children can comprehend. This takes place in our Fellowship hall. The lessons conveys the principals which the Pastor is preaching, so the entire family can eventually discuss and apply together.
 
What opportunities do you provide to grow and learn about God?

We have a learning platform called “Sermon Food”, it is a small group environment at individual homes throughout Swedesboro, Logan and Woolwich. This is a time where we go further into the sermon points, biblical principles, and discuss application. All are welcomed and the atmosphere is one of encouragement and openness; which is preceded by a light meal enjoyed by the group.

How do I join?

By profession of faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior or by transfer of membership from another church. We also have a New Members Class, which teaches the fundamentals of the Christian faith; as well as our doctrinal and missional beliefs.
