First Baptist Church

About this church

First Baptist Church in Clinton offers two Sunday services built around the same sermon and biblical teaching. The 9:00 a.m. service uses a full band and worship team in a contemporary, relaxed setting, while the 11:15 traditional service combines classic hymns and modern worship songs led by the choir. Sunday School meets between them at 10:15. Childcare is available during both services, making either style workable for families. The congregation’s stated mission is to love God and extend God’s love to all people through worship, relationships, witness, giving, service, and missions.

Children have a dedicated Kids’ Worship during the 9:00 service, followed by age-designed Sunday School classes at 10:15. During the school year, Children in Action meets Sunday evenings from 5:15 to 7:30 for a light supper, recreation, praise, biblical teaching, and small groups. The church describes itself as locally autonomous while cooperating with the Laurens Baptist Association, South Carolina Baptist Convention, Southern Baptist Convention, and Cooperative Baptist Fellowship for mission and educational purposes. This combination of two worship formats, coordinated children’s care, and a clear Sunday sequence helps first-time visitors plan around their preferred style and household needs.
