Our Mission
The Congregation of First Baptist Church, led by the Holy Spirit,
covenants to worship Almighty God and to be disciples of Jesus Christ. Consistent with the Great Commission, we will share our spiritual gifts beyond our doors with enthusiasm, generosity, and grace.
Our Vision
Alongside the community of faith in Martinsville and Henry County, we seek to serve and to love our neighbors of all ages – from the smallest children to the most seasoned adults – with care and attention to physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, just as Jesus did in his ministry.

Rev. Dr. Libby Grammer will preach a sermon on “Journey to the Cross: Giving All “
In our Gospel lesson, Philip and the other disciples find out just what a powerful sacrifice Jesus is willing to make. Jesus says “the hour has come” and the “seed of grain must die before it can bear fruit.” Our hour is nearing too. Lent is coming to an end soon. We realize that sometimes things must die away before rebirth can happen. Are we ready on our Lenten journey to make a commitment to sacrificial living? If not, what’s holding us back?
Scriptures are Psalm 119:9-16 and John 12:20-33
