A Place for You 

Are you looking for a place to belong?  We welcome you to networks at First Baptist Westfield!

We are thrilled to have you check us out, and invite you to explore our various ministry opportunities throughout these web pages.

In addition, here are a few highlights... 

Singles
    A well-established Singles Group for those widowed, divorced, or never married meets at the First Baptist Church each Sunday at 9:00 am in the lower level Fellowship Hall.   It's not group therapy, but a discussion group that deals with singles' issues, fosters friendships and allows a sharing of experiences.  Other activities include winter movies, picnics, and holiday get-togethers.  Coffee, cake, and bagels are served, and  a $2.00 donation is requested.  The Singles Group is non-denominational and ALL ARE WELCOME!  For more information please call Lil (908-889-4751) or Bob (908) 322-7762.

Monthly groups
Grub with the Guys (a Men's Breakfast Group), Women's Book Club, Women's Story-Writing Group, and a Pray for Peace group.  See calendar for details or call First Baptist at 908-233-2278.

Young Adults at First Baptist have an informal "college and career" fellowship that goes out together after Saturday Evening or Sunday Morning Worship.  Visit some Sunday morning (10:15 am worship or 2nd-4th Saturday (5:00 pm), and ask for Michael Weaver.

Opportunities to Serve Others abound at First Baptist: collections, delivering food to the homeless in Manhattan, serving at a soup kitchen, and more.   Check the calendar or Messenger (monthly newsletter) for current projects.

Adult Bible Study, Tuesdays 7:15-8:30 pm.  Led by our Minister of Adult Education, this group explores a book of the Bible chapter-by-chapter.  No prior Biblical knowledge is needed and no one will be asked to read or answer questions unless they volunteer.
