Welcome to First Baptist Church of Pendleton
As we aspire to keep Jesus at the center of our lives, we are Rooted in Faith, and Growing in Love. We endeavor to be a welcoming and affirming community of grace for all people, loving our neighbors because God first loved us.

During the season of Epiphany, this series invites us to consider how we can live with purpose and joy in our everyday lives. Stories of the early ministry of Jesus, along with Old Testament texts, remind us that joy can be found regardless of external circumstances. This joy sustains us through hardships and gives our lives deeper meaning.

Today begins our week of prayer for Collins Home Family Ministries! Church for Change banks are available on the altar table and at the doors exiting the sanctuary. Each family is invited to take home a bank, fill it with your spare change this week, and bring it with you to worship next Sunday, February 16. See the bulletin insert for ways to pray for Collins Home this week. An article in our Feb 4 newsletter shares more about this initiative.
