WELCOME CLASS OF 2026

this is where you belong!

WE CAN'T WAIT TO MEET YOU!

At First Baptist Church of Alachua, you are loved by God, valued in this family, and invited into a deeper walk with Him.

About Our Church

We’re more than a Sunday service, we’re a family. We love each other deeply, walking through life’s highs and lows together, and we welcome you into that same love. All we desire is to show the world the love of Jesus and to share the life-changing hope He offers. We believe that through Jesus, anyone can experience forgiveness, transformation, and the gift of eternal life. Whether you’re new to faith or searching for answers, you have a place here, and we’d be honored to walk this journey with you.

Why Community Matters

God never intended for us to walk through life alone. From the very beginning, He created us for relationship with Himself and with one another. In community, we find encouragement when life feels heavy, wisdom from those who’ve walked the road before us, and joy in celebrating God’s goodness together. The Christian life is not a solo journey; it’s a family of believers growing side by side, lifting each other up, and pointing one another to Jesus.
