About

Temple Free Will Baptist Church

Temple FWB Church began in 1977 in hopes to show the love of Christ in the Greater Greenville area.  With the call of the Father, this mission church opened its doors in downtown Greenville.  Since that time, the church has been poised to spread the Gospel to this city and around the world.  In that regard, not much has changed.  We are still hungry to tell others about the wonderful God of the universe.  Come join us to find out how much He loves you. In the Great Commandment, Christ tells us that we are to "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."  Everything we do points directly to Him.  He is the Author and Creator of the universe, and He deserves our praise.  Jesus also commands us to "Love your neighbor as yourself."  Our neighbors include the body of believers we fellowship with and also the community in which we live.  Through serving, we are the light to the world; taking them the hope, joy, peace and love of our Savior. We are a community of people who are in process. We have imperfect messy lives, but we are pursuing and experiencing a transforming relationship with Jesus and with each other. Everybody is welcome here whatever your story, your questions, doubts or struggles. We’re all about doing life together in community, being intentional about our growth as people and serving one another and our broader community along the way. We want to invite you to one of our gatherings to experience our community of Jesus-followers authentically engaging with the God we love!
