OUR MINISTRIES:
There is something for every age at FBC Milan!
ADULT CLASSES - On Sunday mornings at 9:00, we have classes for all adults in different age groups. From Couples’ classes to Men’s & Women’s classes to Senior Adults, we have a variety of classes to offer any age or stage in life.
CHILDREN & FAMILY MINISTRIES - Our CHILDREN'S MINISTRY exists to equip kids to change their world. We want to impact the children of our community and beyond with the message of Christ's love. Our FAMILY MINISTRY emphasizes how important families are at FBC, and we want them to have fun together. Throughout the year we plan events for families that range from going to the movies or ballgames together to weekends that focus entirely on the family. Family mission opportunities are also a part of the Family Ministry at FBC Milan.
We have many things to offer children of all ages!

MEN’S MINISTRY - Share in life with men who stand ready to help you face the challenges of everyday life.
