Prayer

TIP Line - Together in Prayer 

Welcome to the First Baptist Church TIP Line. This is our online prayer request website.

Our desire is to have as many people in our church and community actively and fervently in prayer. We believe prayer is the key to a strong GOD-LED church. This in turn allows us to live out our church motto “Love God, Love People” as God instructed us as Christians to do.
