Church Notice on Virus, Sunday's Services closed until May
It was with much sadness that we have closed our Worship services for public attendance and we will be closed until the end of April. This is being done to provide for the safety of our attendees and staff. We decided that we should follow the President's and the Governor's directives to remain closed so people can be safe at home.
We will continue to Live Stream the Sunday worship service at 11:00 AM and it will also be recorded and available for viewing on this web site under "Sermons" (we are working on fixing last week’s problems). We urge people to stay home and enjoy our live streaming service. For Facebook Live Stream just click on the link at the bottom of this page and then scroll down to the event.
The pastors are still available to serve you and if you have any needs call the church office at 702-346-7061. God Bless each of you as we put our trust in God and seek to help each other until the time we can all safely join together and celebrate our Risen Lord. The church isn’t a place or a program, the church is you, united to share the LOVE OF JESUS! We are bound together by love, the love of God. So, whether you worship in church, at home or online may you be filled with hope and peace as only God can provide. With love and respect, - Pastor Bill
First Baptist Church will be offering Drive Thru Prayer every Sunday. This sunday we will be offering communion at our "Drive Thru Prayer" service. We have sealed containers with a wafer and the juice. For those who want to partake just come to the church parking lot, Pastor and Vicki will come to your car and offer a word of encouragement, prayer and communion. In order to serve our Church Family we will be continuing to offer drive through prayer on Sunday mornings until further notice. So on Sunday morning between the hours of 8:00 and 9:30, Pastor & Vicki will be in our Church parking lot for all those who come.
There are many people with needs so your offerings are important. Your tithes and offering can be mailed or dropped off at the church office which will remain open M-F from 10:00 AM- 3:00 PM. Giving can also be done online using the Tithely app.
If you would like to contribute please click the link above. In some rare cases the link may not work, an additional link is https://tithe.ly/give?c=434352
New to the area or looking for a church?
We believe that you will come to love Mesquite with its friendly atmosphere and great people. However, when most of us moved to Mesquite, we found a need to fill the void of family and friends left behind. That need was met when we became a part of the family at First Baptist Church. We were surprised by the welcoming and friendliness of the people who have now become best friends and supporters.
First Baptist Church of Mesquite is for people who think attending church should be enjoyable and uplifting. All Baptist churches are independent and operate slightly differently. Our church is designed to meet the needs of our community. We are a group of friendly people who have discovered the joy of a Christian lifestyle.
As our church has grown, the family expands and so does our circle of friends. There are many opportunities to get involved or come and enjoy the excellent services and events. So, if you don’t have a church family, we want to invite you to come and experience the family atmosphere and see if you would enjoy becoming a part of our family and attending our church. - Pastor Bill Stevenson and the FBC Church Family

Meet our new Church Secretary – Gracia Hinesh
Gracia was raised in Michigan and then spent 40 years in San Diego before retiring & moving to Mesquite almost 5 years ago. She says God brought her here and led her to just the right neighborhood and the right church. After her husband Lee’s passing in 2018 we are now her family
Gracia volunteers at the Virgin Valley Thrift store, and she is the Scheduler for our In Touch ministry. She's already proven her competence as a secretary because of the way she has handled the scheduling and projects for the pastor. She has a ready smile and loves purple. She says she is honored to be our church Secretary. Be sure and say hello.
All Women were invited on Valentine's day to a very special Women's mini retreat. With lunch and Enntertainment.
Serval women shared their inspiration with stories, song and movement. We asked all to come and enjoy. And they did with over 50 in attendance.
Praise Team:
Some people wonder where the great music comes from, here they are. This group along with our great piano players, Myra and Joy supply the praise songs week after week. They practice each Saturday to bring the songs and music to life. If you are a singer or play a musical instrument and might like to join our group please call the church. If you are not a singer, still come and join in with the audience for an enjoyable time and wonderful music. Our services are at 8:00am and 11:00am each Sunday. Come hear and see.
