Men's Ministry
Every Friday our men meet in the OFC for donuts and prayer at 7:00am. Also, on the first Sunday of every month, our men have a big, homecooked breakfast in our fellowship hall that starts at 8:30am. Also, our men have an adult men's corral that sings on Sunday mornings every now and then.
For those that prefer an evening get-together, we offer a Men's Bible study that meets online through zoom. Each study dives into the New Testament and goes chapter by chapter so as to get as much out of it as possible. The men also go on outings as well.

Women’s Ministry
Our women’s ministry is a great way for women to fellowship, serve the Lord, and spend time together. We have our Women on Mission group that meets on a Tuesday morning of every month to focus on local, state, an international missions.
Also, once a month, usually on a Saturday afternoon, ladies of all ages go out and do fun things together. In the past we have gone to see Sherri from the Brant Hansen show, attended the Aspire Women’s Conference, gone out to eat at great restaurants, along with many other fun outings.
If you're a lady and would like to get plugged into this ministry, see the contact information below.

Senior's Ministry
Not only do we have a number of Sunday School classes for seniors, but we also have our Senior Ministry called "Keenagers" because they are still "keen" on being active and having fun no matter their age.
​
Our "Keenagers" are a group of seniors 55+ years old that get together on the 2nd Friday of each month. We visit different places that are somewhat local and have lunch together afterwards. Most trips only require a little money and are perfect for budgets that may be a little tight.
​
If you are aged 55 or older and would like to get plugged into any of these ministries, see the contact information below.

Music Ministry
The purpose of the Music Ministry is to exhort, uplift, and encourage the body of Christ through song and worship. The Music Ministry encompasses the Praise Team, adult choir, and children’s choir. All are welcome to participate in any of the choirs.
​
A key component of the Music Ministry is the praise and worship portion of the service on Sunday mornings or other functions when called upon by the pastor. The significance of praise and worship is of profound importance in the lives of the children of God.

Operation Christmas Child
FBCW on average sends 1500 shoeboxes each year. Barb Schadler is the church's Project Leader; she has some ladies that work on them all year. They sharpen pencils, make Tic Tac Toe games, remove packaging, fold socks, sew blankets etc. Our OFC Building is a Central Drop Off location and has been for 10 years. Barb Schadler arranges a packing party in October where the church comes together to pack 800 shoeboxes. The other 700 boxes come from individuals packing their own and dropping them off. During collection week, we usually have 6 dedicated volunteers that help daily throughout the week, but a lot of others pop in and out. Please join us as we make just a small impact on the Kingdom of God by packing shoeboxes in the name of Jesus!
