Sundays
With multiple groups meeting at 9:15 am, there are options for every adult in each stage of life:
     -Women's group led by Mandy Chaney-Second floor of the Education Building
     -Adult 1 (medium age) led by Gabe Saxon-Dining Room of the Family Life Center
     -Adult 2 (50's and 60's) led by Larry McClendon- first floor of the Education Building
     -Senior Adults led by Sherry Moore- first floor of the Education Building

These groups are built to complement and expand upon our corporate Sunday morning worship.  Each class provides a time of intentional fellowship and prayer.  We believe this lays the foundation for building a supportive and loving family in Christ.

Wednesdays
We have two groups for adults on Wednesday nights. These groups are  for adults of all ages and meet in our Education Building at 6:30 pm.  These  group focus on Bible Study and prayer.

Choir/Worship Team
Our adult choir and worship team leads Sunday morning worship and performs musicals during special services throughout the year.  They meet on Sundays at 4:00 p.m.

The Worship Ministry of First Baptist Marianna exists to glorify God and to lead His people in worshiping Him in spirit and truth.  Whether it is through our choir ministry or in a Sunday morning worship gathering, we understand that God has called us to sing His praises (Psalm 30:4) and to declare the excellencies of Christ (I Peter 2:9).  We are always looking for new members for our worship team.  If you have an interest in being a part of the worship ministry as an instrumentalist, singer, or a member of the audio/visual team, please reach out to Pastor Steve Moore.

There are many ways that First Baptist Marianna seeks to fulfills its mission to Love and Engage.  Each  year, the church is involved in reaching out to the community through outreach events such as Community Block Parties, Fall Festivals, Upward Basketball, Men's Wild Game Dinners and Vacation Bible School.  While those events take place on the church campus, there are many other events that seek to reach people throughout the community and around the world.  Mission trips, both domestic and foreign, local festivals, teacher appreciation events, community music concerts and ministries to local prisons are are apart of the outreach of First Baptist Marianna.

Hurts, habits, hang-ups? There is hope!  Join our Celebrate Recovery group.  This informal and confidential support group helps you walk through some of life's tough times. CR meets on Wednesdays at 5:30 pm in the Education Building. For more information, contact our Celebrate Recovery Group Leader, Fred Banuelos, through our Church Office - 870-295-9131
