plan your visit

Welcome, we’re excited you’re here! Whether you’ve never been to church before, or you’re just new to First Baptist Church of Elkhart, you’re in the right place! We’re so happy to be able to give you a little taste of what FBC is like on a typical Sunday morning.

Worship Services

On Sunday mornings, people of all ages come together to worship, grow, and experience community. We gather for two identical services at 8:30 & 10:30 am, so you can choose the time that works best for you. If you can’t be here in person, each service is also available to watch online.

Connection Point

The Connection Point is your hub for everything happening at FBC. It’s the place to find out about upcoming events, explore resources, and discover ways to get involved. Stop by between services — we’d love to meet you there.

Checking In Your Kids

If you have children, plan to arrive about fifteen minutes early for your first visit so you can check them in at our New Family Check-In area, located at Connection Point. Friendly greeters will be there to help you every step of the way.

Newborns through age three meet downstairs, and kids ages four through sixth grade meet upstairs in their age-appropriate classrooms for a fun, engaging time designed just for them.

To save time when you arrive, you can pre-register your child ahead of time. Just click the button below to get started.
