Senior Adult Ministries
The J.O.Y Ministries seeks to glorify God as we minister to the senior adults of First Baptist Church and those in the Morehead City area. Our senior adults are an essential part of many ministries within our church. It is our goal to provide ministries for our senior adults to grow spiritually, to enjoy fellowship with one another, to serve others, and to gain more knowledge on topics of interest. Come and join us on this mission.
"Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come." Pslams 71:18 (NIV)

Homecheer
Our Homebound Ministry seeks to bring joy and encouragement to members of our congregation who are unable to attend regularly. Through intentional care and connection, we want each person to feel loved, valued, and a meaningful part of our church family.
“Homebound” includes those recuperating at home, living in assisted living or nursing facilities, or facing ongoing limitations that prevent regular participation in church or community activities.
