Interim Pastor's Welcome
Welcome to the website of the First Baptist Church of Aurora! I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for visiting our website today. I hope that the information contained in these pages will introduce visitors to who we are and give insight into some of the beliefs we hold dear.
We also hope the information shared here will help keep our members and friends informed and up-to-date with the
activities and direction of our church.
We believe in the fellowship of the congregation as well as in the value and uniqueness of the individual. We strive for a spirit of love and offer a promise of prayer and compassion to all whose paths we cross. We aspire to be a fellowship of concerned and caring people. We hope to be a congregation that allows the lost to find Jesus, sinners to find forgiveness, the troubled to find peace, the lonely to find love, and seekers to find welcome.
We believe that God has called us to be a witness in the world and dedicate ourselves to be servants of the
Lord of all life, Jesus Christ. We pledge our support and our finances to the work of God's ministry both here and
throughout the world.
We acknowledge our human frailties and ourselves seek His forgiveness. We profess our need for the Holy Spirit and commit ourselves to serving God and loving our neighbors as we love ourselves. We thank God for our rich
and glorious past. We thank Him for the laborers who went before us. We are ever indebted to them. We thank God
for the present. We are so very blessed today. We thank Him for all the folks who labor in love, who pray, and
seek God's will for the future of our church family. We thank God for the glorious vision of tomorrow, which is
shared by so many within our congregation. Remembering our past, but ever mindful of tomorrow, we press on
toward the prize of God's high calling.
We invite you to be a part of the ministry of our church. Please come and worship and fellowship with us if
you are able and near. Pray continually that God will bless us that we might be a blessing to others and glorify Him!
Join us as friends and members of the "Share the Vision" campaign, as we labor toward our goal of building our
new church building.
Please feel free to call us if you have any questions, prayer concerns, or comments.May God richly bless you,
In Christian love,
Interim Pastor, Steve Allen
