A church family centered on Jesus

First Baptist Church of Freeport is a Southern Baptist church serving Freeport and the surrounding Brazosport community. Our preaching and teaching submit entirely to the authority of Scripture. Our pastor preaches the truth of God's Word to change hearts, strengthen families, and anchor our church community in sound doctrine, focusing on applying biblical truth practically to our daily lives. Our community is based on our relationship with Jesus Christ, which allows us to fellowship with each other in a unique way that sets us apart from other organizations. We also actively serve our surrounding community in many different ways, including:

  • Providing meals and drinks to teachers at Freeport Intermediate School
  • Serving meals to port workers through the Texas Port Ministry
  • Providing all the groceries needed for a Thanksgiving meal to families in need
  • Collecting school supplies and clothes for families in need
  • Collecting Christmas gifts for families in need
  • Collecting items for Military Moms and Wives
  • Supporting River of Hope
  • Collecting food for Brazosport Cares
  • We gather to worship God, study the Bible, encourage one another, and share the love of Christ.

    Whether you have attended church your entire life or are just beginning to ask questions about faith, there is a place for you here.
