Welcome to Friendship Baptist Church
Friendship Baptist Church (FBC) is located in New Concord, Ohio. This rural village has a population of 2,500 and is located in Muskingum County which has a population of about 86,000. The two largest employers are both educators and both are located within one or two miles of FBC: Muskingum University with approximately 1,450 undergraduate students and 100 faculty, and East Muskingum School District which draws kids from about a ten mile radius and hosts over 2,200 students and 160 faculty.
FBC is a casual contemporary church founded in 1978. Attendance on a typical Sunday ranges from 100-120 people. Sunday Bible Study begins at 9:00 with adult classes, AWANA classes for young children and grades 7-12 meet across the road at the Grange building. The Worship Service begins at 10:30 featuring lots of contemporary praise, a message from John Johnson, and an altar call, which normally wraps up about 12:00. We also celebrate communion and baptism throughout the year.
Friendship Baptist is involved in several outreach programs and has Bible studies for men, women, and youth that meet during the week. We are a part of the Southern Baptist Convention, but function autonomously. Active leadership groups in our church are the deacons and the trustees, and we make decisions by consensus in the setting of a business meeting.
