First Baptist Church Imperial Lakes

About this church

First Baptist Church Imperial Lakes meets at 1905 Shepherd Road in Lakeland. Sunday small groups begin at 9:30 a.m., and the congregation gathers in the Family Center for blended worship at 10:30. A welcome team provides directions, bulletins, visitor bags, and coffee. Children begin in the worship service and are dismissed for their own program; nursery care is available for infants through age four during regular services. The church describes the atmosphere as friendly and relaxed while maintaining a traditional Baptist emphasis on Scripture.

Wednesday dinner is served from 5:15 to 6:15 p.m. for a modest charge, with Bible study and age-based activities beginning at 6:30. SPARK serves preschoolers through fifth grade during the school year, and separate student ministry is available for teenagers. The congregation states that its mission is to embrace people with God’s love, equip believers through Scripture, and engage its surrounding community. Its ministries also include music, women’s and men’s groups, senior adults, and local and international missions. Seasonal children’s programs and meal service can change, so consult the current church calendar before attending midweek.
