First Christian Church of Lubbock

About this church

First Christian Church of Lubbock worships Sundays at 8:30 a.m. in the chapel and 10:40 in the sanctuary, with Sunday School at 9:30. The sanctuary choir leads the later service using hymns, gospel music, classical pieces, piano, organ, and the rhythms of the liturgical calendar; handbells add another musical ministry. Youth study Scripture from 9:35 to 10:35 before joining the congregation at 10:40, while Sunday-night youth combines fellowship, gospel teaching, worship, and small groups. Adult classes range from intergenerational discussion to close Bible study and fellowship.

Sixteen believers organized the congregation in 1901, initially worshiping in homes, public rooms, and other churches. Its present sanctuary opened in 1948, and the church developed longstanding relationships with students and faculty in Lubbock. The mission is to encourage Christians toward holiness and to preach, teach, and demonstrate the gospel. Believer’s baptism by immersion is practiced, while other forms of baptism are affirmed. College ministry welcomes students and working young adults through Sunday and midweek connection, service, missions, and a Wednesday Bible study at 7:30 p.m. The official material does not state service length, Communion frequency or guest practice, child-care and nursery arrangements, youth check-in or screening, clothing, parking, accessibility, hearing support, or livestream availability.
