First Baptist Church of Theodore

About this church

First Baptist Church of Theodore gathers for worship on Sundays at 10:45 a.m. in the sanctuary at 7125 Bellingrath Rd in Theodore, Alabama. Sunday School for all ages meets at 9:30 a.m. beforehand. First-time visitors can fill out a Connect Card online, pick one up with a welcome packet at the information desk, or ask the greeters in the sanctuary foyer for directions. The congregation was organized in 1897 and describes its mission as knowing God through worship, preaching and teaching the gospel, and telling the good news to others.

Wednesday is a second gathering point in the week. Lunch and prayer with the pastor meets at 11 a.m. in the Christian Life Center. The evening begins with a fellowship supper at 5:30 p.m., followed at 6 p.m. by Missions for children and Bible study for youth and adults. The Wednesday schedule can change around holidays and school closings, so confirm on the website or in the weekly Worship Guide. A nursery for infants through pre-K is staffed on Sunday mornings, and children's classes serve preschoolers and kindergarten through fifth grade. Tweens and teens have Bible study, fellowship, and activities such as Vacation Bible School, movie nights, and field trips. The campus includes three sanctuaries, two educational buildings, and a gymnasium. The office is generally open Monday through Thursday mornings, but calling 251-653-8695 ahead is recommended.
