First Baptist Church of Cottondale

About this church

First Baptist Church of Cottondale is an independent Baptist congregation begun on Easter Sunday in 1955 with eleven charter members. It met first in a community building, moved to its present property about a year later, opened the current sanctuary in 1990, and added a family life center in 2002. Bible teaching, traditional singing, age-based classes, missions, fellowship, and a strong family identity continue that local history.

Sunday School begins at 10:00 a.m., morning worship at 11:00, and evening worship at 6:00 p.m.; starred worship services are livestreamed. Adult Bible study meets Wednesday at 7:00 p.m., with the gym opening at 6:30. A typical worship service lasts about an hour, beginning with traditional singing and continuing with a biblical message. Nursery care serves newborns through age three during Sunday School, services, and Wednesday programming. During the 11:00 service, children ages four through twelve divide into prekindergarten-through-second-grade and third-through-sixth-grade classes for Bible stories, memory work, games, and snacks. Families should arrive before 10:00 or 11:00 to locate the correct room, while online visitors can use the marked livestreamed gatherings.
