| Pastor Comments | First Baptist is a friendly church serving the community of Valdese through its ministries of preaching, teaching, and living the Word. Outreach through Sunday School, youth activities, OWLS, and music seek to meet the needs of all the segments of our church family. From our beloved charter member, Esther Cline (101), to our youngest in the nursery, we seek to grow in God's love together. |
