About Us
At First Baptist Church Newellton, we have a simple hope: to see people come to know Jesus Christ and grow in their Christian faith. For 89 years, we've been helping spread God's good news here in Tensas Parish and throughout the world, and we pray that God will continue to use our congregation. We are a small church with a big heart, so whether you've been attending church for years or haven't stepped into a sanctuary in decades, we will always welcome you with open arms.
When you come to join us for the first time, you'll be greeted with kindness and Christian love. We would love the opportunity to get to know you. If you'd like, we'll help you find the nursery, restrooms, sanctuary, and, of course, coffee.
During the service, you'll hear our faith expressed in the songs we sing, the prayers we offer up, and our speaker's message. All parts of our service are grounded in the Bible, which we are committed to upholding.
No matter what your Christian background is (or isn't), we hope you'll join us on Sunday. Here at First Baptist Church Newellton, we welcome everyone--including you. Our services start at 10:45 a.m. every Sunday, with Sunday School preceeding at 9:45 a.m.
First Baptist Church Newellton cooperates with the Southern Baptist Convention, Louisiana Baptist Convention, and Delta Baptist Association.
