Welcome to Filer, Idaho’s First Baptist Church which
has been serving people since 1915. This vibrant and very active
congregation is now in its ninetieth year of history. Since 1982, we have
been located in a modern facility located right on U.S. Highway 30, across
from the Filer Middle School.
Filer First Baptist is a very active congregation of about 200 people. We
offer many opportunities for spiritual growth, fellowship, service and
community. Our Sunday Morning Worship Service starts at 10:45 a. m. and
includes excellent music, a message from the Bible and an inviting
atmosphere of warmth and community. We have several visitors worshipping
with us almost every Sunday. We also offer Sunday school classes for
children, youth and adults at 9:30 a. m. every Sunday of the year.
During the school year from September to May we offer Bible Club for
pre-school through elementary school children from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. on
Wednesdays. Also on that day is Wednesday Night Live Dinner at 6:00 p.m.
followed by both Junior and Senior High School Youth Programs called Team
Eternity.
Twice a year we have been offering the eleven-week ALPHA course for adults
who are seeking more information about the Christian faith and for those
wanting to renew their faith. (This is offered on Thursday evenings.)
Recently, we have been offering Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University
to help people deal with debt and saving for retirement.
Every summer we send children and youth to
Cathedral Pines Camp in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area for a week of Christian camping, we also
use our camp during the rest of the year for various retreats and
conferences.
So whether you are a spiritual seeker just starting to ask questions about
God, or a committed Christian who wants to go deeper in your faith in
Jesus Christ, you can find a home at Filer First Baptist Church. There is
a place here for you to find authentic and enduring relationships with God
and with others.
Pastor Gary Gilman
