First Baptist Church, located in downtown Rocky Mount, NC is prayerfully seeking God’s will as we search for a Student Minister to serve on our ministerial team. As a member of the ministerial team, the Student Minister will serve in a way that leads the church to accomplish her established mission: to glorify God and make disciples among our neighbors and the nations. First Baptist Church was established in 1880 and has a rich legacy of biblical faithfulness and missional emphasis. By God’s grace, in her 141 years, FBCRM has enjoyed collaborating on local church plants, working with regional denominational efforts, and vibrant mission partnerships across North America and around the world. We are a conservative Southern Baptist Church that adheres to the “Baptist Faith and Message, 2000.”
