Children
First Baptist Church of Memphis’ ministry to children demonstrates God’s love through our relationships with children.
We are a church that values children for who they are and what they teach us about the kingdom of God. We seek to nurture children’s growth as followers of Christ through education and spiritual formation in our regular weekly programs and special events.
