Children's Ministry

The Children’s Ministry of First Baptist Church Tyler knows that your children are the greatest blessings and ministering to children is our joy and passion. We desire that every child would be known, loved, and led towards Christ. Through every ministry opportunity, we strive to show children what it means to Live, Teach and Tell the Gospel, so that all may encounter the Living God.

Safety & Security

Loving children means caring for them in a safe environment. Every classroom includes 2 or more adults that have passed a background check screening and been trained on our church policy. The Preschool & Kids Halls are kept secure by limiting traffic to just volunteers, parents, and children.
