Introduction
to Ministry:
Although we don't like to think violent acts occurring within
the church walls, it is something for which we are obligated to prepare. Our ministry has an obligation to church members,
parishioners, and every visitor who steps inside our doors to provide a safe environment for worship. This Ministry is made
up of a team of dedicated men and women who work together to provide a safe holistic atmosphere within the body of First Baptist
Church of Highland Park, the city on the hill.
Mission
Statement:
Our goal is serve the members and guests of our church, from directing

Park.
