Eagles Landing First Baptist Church is not the only one concerned about meeting the needs of our community and sharing the good news of Jesus Christ. There are several ministries in our community that we have teamed up with to combat poverty, educational challenges, homelessness, and preserve and protect human life... all for the glory of Jesus Christ!
So, how will we respond to the challenges that our culture brings our way every day? Better yet, how will we respond to the “compassionate call” of the gospel every day?
Here are some specific opportunities and partners to help you and your family and friends answer that question—to respond to that call.
Poverty

The body of Christ does not consist of one member but many.
(1 Corinthians 12:14)
We have many members of the body of Christ: children, youth, adolescents, adults, and senior adults. All of the church needs to be edified and equipped for Christ's service. We have an excellent opportunity to serve those advanced in years by providing a short devotional, a time of prayer, and music on Sunday mornings at 10:45 - 11:20 at Laurel Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. If you would like to receive more information on serving the residents at Laurel Park fill out the form below and provide us with your contact information.
James 1:27 reminds us that such service is pure and undefiled before our Father in Heaven.
