First Baptist Church of Fairbury

Goal: $20,000.00

Specific Need

Updates are a constant need in an older building.  Our two kitchens are in need of upgrading.  As we host a myriad of events from funerals, community and youth events and our own church events, it has become evident that improvements are needed to lighting, plumbing and other fixtures.   As other repairs have been completed within the church grounds, our funds are depleted.  It is our hope to continue to offer our space to those in need.

Mission

Our purpose shall be to honor God by building up Jesus' disciples and shining the good news of hope in Jesus Christ in our world.

Profile

     Recent updates to our church building include:

New HVAC system for entire church

New roof due to recent hail storm

New flooring in small rooms

Finish walls and flooring in basement meeting area

Installed an ADA bathroom near sanctuary

Installed concrete to alleviate water drainage issues

Installed concrete retaining wall on parking lot

     We are committed to continuing the necessary repairs to the building we have been blessed to occupy. When applicable, we have utilized local contractors for our repairs, keeping our money spent in our community.

     Our asphalt parking lot is slated for replacement this spring.  Aside from parking, we utilize this area for our annual "give away day."  We offer gently used furniture, clothing, home goods and much more for free for the benefit of our community members.
