Preschool and Children

Please refer to Weekly Updates for upcoming events and activities

Our children are important to us at First Baptist Church Albany.


The Preschool and Children's ministry strives to partner with parents to nurture and lay a strong biblical foundation in the life of each child. We want each child to grow to experience God in a personal way and to accept Christ as his/her personal savior and Lord. By instilling biblical values in each child at an early age we encourage him/her to experience God, accept Christ, and to grow in wisdom and knowledge of His word
