Welcome to First Baptist Church Athens!

Join us Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM for worship; Sunday School for all ages follows the service!

FBCA is prayerfully beginning the process of finding the man whom God has preordained to lead us after our previous pastor retired.

We welcome you to join FBCA on our prayer journey. Click the link below to see the10 - day pastor search prayer guide we are using during this process. May the Lord bless you and keep you.

Pastor Bill will be working through what Scripture says is necessary for a healthy church. There are many ideas to explore as we open our Bibles to 1 Timothy to dig deep into this study.
