WELCOME TO VISITORS
WELCOME VISITORS!
Fairhope Avenue Baptist Church is a growing, traditional, yet vibrant, Southern Baptist Church. If you are in need of a church home, we invite you to come to a service and experience our joyful choir and welcoming congregation.
We believe that every person who comes into the circle of this special fellowship was sent by God Himself. It's not by accident that you have landed here. So, above all else we want to express Christ's love to you with genuine, heartfelt warmth. We're eager to know you, and we're excited to share with you the marvelous ways God is working in our church.
It won't take you long to discover that this is truly a family, rich in the relationships that matter most. Growing together, we worship, we serve, we laugh, we cry, we learn, and we reach out to our world with life-transforming truth. We reach out to you as well. Our doors are open. Our hearts are open, too. If you've been thinking, praying, searching and hoping for a place to belong, we say -
