From humble beginnings in 1881 and founded by former slaves on donated land, the Clarkston First Baptist Church stands today as a powerful, influential institution in the heart of Clarkston, Georgia.
With Christian Education as our driving force and Evangelizing the World as our goal, we are excited about the collective and individual advancement made in various areas of the life of the church and its members. Namely, financial and debt freedom, increased visibility of the church in the community, a renewed commitment to strengthening marriages and families, youth and children and dedication to continued spiritual growth and discipleship development.
These advancements propel us to move forward with new energy, zeal and determination with the vision given by God in the development of a family life center. Such a facility will provide an epicenter for social, educational, spiritual and economic empowerment.
The Clarkston First Baptist Church Family Life Center will house our Day Care Center, Pre-Kindergarten Education, Sports Ministry, Summer Enrichment Program, Senior Citizens Meeting Place, Conference Facility, Classrooms and Administrative Offices for the Community Development Center, Inc. It will serve as a beacon of life, answering a needy call in providing services to its members, the community of Clarkston and the county at large.
