Our military men & women have given us so much, and now FBA wants to give something back. The new Military Ministry's mission is to "encourage, help, and support the active military members, their families, and veterans in the FBA community."
First Baptist Church Atlanta is officially adopting a National Guard Brigade from Dobbins Air Reserve Base. Some in the brigade were recently deployed and others are waiting to be deployed.
The Military Ministry is going to go far beyond just sending care packages. This will truly be “ministry to our men and women serving in the military, and their families.”
We have created sub groups within the Ministry that will focus on specific areas of needs that deployed military members face, and also areas of need that their family members are having to deal with. Each of these sub groups will be supervised by a staff pastor or director.
The sub groups of the ministry include:
Prayer Support Hospitality/Recognition Health Support - Physical, emotional, mental and Spiritual Family Support Warrior Support/Adopted Unit Support Veteran Support
First Baptist Atlanta will be one of several “Family Readiness Groups” that Dobbins Air Force Base will be able to contact whenever military personnel or military families have special needs.
We are in need of church members who have skills to contribute to this battalion and their family members. We need people with talents in every area, including yard work, mechanical, car repair, tutoring, tax preparation, etc.
Please email us your preferred area of service, and continually check this webpage for updates, new service opportunities and specific ways to get involved.
