We Believe is our plan to seek the Lord's provisions in order to add fellowship space to our current facilities.

There are two important goals behind the “WE BELIEVE” campaign:

The first is to empower our church community with the facilities needed to continue making a difference in peoples’ lives through Jesus Christ. The second is through the act of sacrificial giving, each of us will take another step in our walk with God.

We have seen God’s amazing hand at work in our lives and through our many ministries at Bells First Baptist. “We Believe” campaign is a spiritual challenge to elevate all of our giving commitments – our time, talents, and treasures. Those who come through our doors and those we serve in the world can continue to experience the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.

Bells First Baptist needs to build a new, larger fellowship space. This first phase will serve the dual purpose of being large enough for court games or even just a climate-controlled area for walking.

A new kitchen area as well as ample storage will also be included. In addition, classrooms and/or meeting space will be incorporated.  A new music suite will be added in phase two, as the current choir room is refashioned into a secondary welcome lobby. The office staff will give up their space and move into a more functional administration area while a remodel of existing space will better accommodate our preschool ministry in phase three.

Join us in support at Bells First Baptist Church as “WE BELIEVE” God is the way when there seems to be no way. God, we believe in you.

He is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think.

– Ephesians 3:20
