Benevolence Ministries
First Baptist maintains two funds to assist people in crisis.
One is the benevolence fund. It is for members and employees. Contributions are received when the church participates in the Lord’s Supper. A deacon committee oversees the disbursement of funds. Contact the Minister of Pastoral Care, Rus Roach, for more information.
A second fund is the crisis fund for nonmembers. Persons requesting assistance should call 664-6000. The missions committee oversees this ministry. Monies are received for this fund at church concerts and other special events.
Mission Churches
First Baptist Nashville has started numerous churches in Nashville and beyond over its 187 year history. Recent church starts include Thompson Station Baptist Church in Thompson Station, TN and Crossroads Community Church in Franklin, TN. The Church of the Messiah (primarily an African-American congregation) and Primera Iglesia Bautista are both in Nashville.
Current missions include the Japanese Congregation of Middle Tennessee which meets every Sunday at 2:15 at First Baptist Nashville's building. Contact Barry Walker or visit their website - located at http://www.jbctn.org - for more information.
