There are many excellent churches in the our area.  Finding the one that fits your comfort zone will take time and
effort but will provide a bounty of blessings once you locate it.  Finding a church home might change your life!  
When you visit us, we hope you notice these seven things.

1)
It's a Fresh Start.  Many of us wish we had the opportunity to make a fresh start -- to discover a place where we
are accepted, can develop and grow.  Perhaps you went to church in the past and have gotten out of the habit.  If
its time for you to jump back in, First Baptist Church of Groveport is ready to assist you in that fresh start.  You will
find people like yourself who are discovering and growing.

2)
Warmth.  We love each other and we will love you too!  We believe the church should be a place of haven -- of
peace, and harmony.  

3)
Conviction.   We hold certain truths to be non-negotiable -- truths that have been held precious by genuine
Christians through the ages.  We are unashamed to declare our fidelity to the Word of God.  At the same time we
understand the impossibility of unanimity on all points of peripheral doctrine.  In these gray areas we maintain that
we do not have to be twins to be brothers and invite all to visit with us.

4)
We're Contemporary.  Our church was designed to meet the needs of the twenty-first century. We have
planned an atmosphere in which you will feel free to invite friends.  One word people will use to describe our
services is "casual" -- enough structure to insure order but coupled with a freedom that most folks tell us they really
enjoy.  

5)
Commitment.  We are committed to several things -- distinctives -- about which we feel strongly.  We are
dedicated to verse by verse exposition of the Scripture in our meetings.  Second we are committed to world
evangelization.  Missions occupies one of our highest priorities.  Thirdly, we emphasize fellowship.  We take every
opportunity to spend time together.  Our people are friendly and eager to get to know you -- many of us are your
neighbors.

6)
We're People Oriented.  Our church wants to serve.  The church is not an organizational hierarchy.  It is not a
building or place - the church is people!  Some words that describe our people: Friendly, Warm, Open, Accessible,
and Loving.  It is our desire to raise up a congregation whose young people honor the Lord and their parents.  
Years from now, infants and toddlers cared for in our nursery will probably not remember what they were taught
there.  They will remember, however, if it was a positive experience.  They will remember if they liked it.  Our
nursery and youth leaders have it as their highest priority to make sure they do!  Our youth ministries may be
exactly the spiritual start your children will respond to.  

7)
Dynamic.  We're alive, excited, and ready for you!  We believe that you will be blessed by our music, instructed
in the Word, and loved into our fellowship.  Come and experience the freshness and vitality of our new church.
