STEP UP / SIGN UP

Worship | Grow | Serve

We believe the local church is here for a purpose: to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. We also believe the church is here for God's mission to help others find this same purpose. At the heart of every program here at FPC Thomasville is the hope that you and your family would mature in faith, be encouraged in the gospel, and be equipped to share its life-changing message with others. Meaningful membership requires a place to Worship, Grow, and Serve. That pattern of life together bears the fruit of spiritual maturity and initiative. It is our hope that you will find a community of faith here.

We offer two Sunday morning services with complementary styles - casual and traditional. Just as different languages can carry the same meaning, so can differences in worship have the same aim. Common to both services is warm fellowship, rich worship and vibrant Gospel preaching and teaching. Whichever your preference, we are blessed to participate in both with excitement and authenticity. Come as you are!

At FPC, we envision every member finding opportunities to grow in relationship with God and in fellowship with others. We offer a variety of adult ministry groups to provide you with an opportunity to foster community and spiritual growth.
