Perfect Church for Imperfect People

"Our purpose...Introduce people to Jesus and adopt them into our Christian family, teaching them to live like Christ, serving others, and worshiping God."

Welcome

At First Baptist Church in Hawley we believe in the ultimate authority of God’s Word. Our desire is to impact lives today with the love of Christ as we follow His lead into the future through the leading of God’s Holy Spirit. We want to make a lasting difference in the lives of others, our community, and the world.

Harvey and Sharon feel very blessed to be part of the FBC family and if there is an overall purpose they wish to convey, it is that “We want to sing, preach, teach, and reach…for God’s glory.”
