Now is the time to delight yourself in the
Lord and stand on His promises.
Do you know God’s plan for your life?
Are you ready for the next level?
Have you re-positioned yourself to receive
the bountiful blessings of God?
Do you have questions and have not received
the answers?
Welcome to the Christian Education Ministry page
We seek to aid the believers in getting answers to their questions
“For the perfecting of the saints, for the work
of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till
we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge
of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of
the stature of the fullness of Christ:”
Ephesians 4:12-13
The Christian Education Ministry focuses on the training
and education of the disciples and members of the church.
The mission of this ministry is to enable and support the
actualization of the FBCG mission through
teaching, training, and educating the saved and the unsaved
for effective ministry and edifying of the Kingdom. The vision
of this ministry is to promote the growth of the body of CHRIST
by providing Christian educational and training opportunities
that meet the needs of FBCG disciples, members, and friends
no matter their station in life. The guiding principles for
Christian Education at the First Baptist Church of Guilford
are as follows: Leadership (Receiving
the Vision and Actualizing the Vision), Discipleship
(Growing the Body thru Growing the Ministry), Stewardship
(Supporting the body through gifts and blessings), and Evangelism
(Spreading the WORD of GOD in word and action).
Under the auspices of the Ministry include the Church
School, Baptist Training Union (BTU), Wings of Faith Dance
Ministry, E-Ministry, the Foundations Class (new
members), Marital Fellowship Ministry, Vacation Bible School,
Welcome Ministry, Young Adult Ministry, the Singles’
Ministry, and the Bible Studies classes conducted in the church
(to become the FBCG Bible Academy). Aside from the regularly
scheduled Ministry meetings and Bible study sessions, special
events for the calendar year include participation in the
Black History Remembrance (February), annual City-Wide Church
Institute (March), Resurrection Play (March/April), National
Baptist Congress of Christian Education (June) and the annual
FBCG Church-Wide Institute (November), and the Christmas Play
(December).
