Faith Baptist Church of Corona NY

"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12

We are excited to kickoff our ProTeens ministry for teens in 7th-12th grade. This Sunday morning Bible study will focus on many topics relevant to Christian young people. Weekly lessons will emphasize the importance of a close walk with God, a healthy relationship with parents, and involvement in the local church. Bible study groups of middle school and high school facilitate important questions and healthy conversation. Teachers will provide Bible study materials so teens can follow along during the lesson and discussion time every Sunday. In addition, we offer devotional journals and personal Bible study booklets (Milk, Meat, Bread, Fish) for teens to use throughout the week. Any teens who need these materials should contact Pastor Christian Acosta.

"Teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." Colossians 3:16

Children can learn about the importance of ministry in the local church from a young age. One way they can do that is by growing in their musical abilities. That's why we are thrilled to introduce Patch and Peewee Clubs this Fall. This special ministry will provide your children with weekly Bible lessons, fun activities, and training in music. We look forward to preparing the children of our church to minister in song during our services.

This Sunday, we will have the blessing of being ministered to by the young people of our ProTeens Ministry. The teens of Faith Baptist Church and Iglesia Bautista de la Fe will serve in various ways throughout our service - in music, song leading, ushering, Scripture reading, and prayer. We look forward to seeing how our youth are being developed in our church to serve Jesus and be an integral part of his body. Pastor Swanson will share a timely Bible message during this special worship service. 

Join Pastor Swanson and Pastor Acosta from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. each Saturday (weather-permitting) at various locations around Queens to pass out gospel tracts and invite people to church. Check in regularly for updates on each week's location.

All teens and parents are invited to join us for a unique time of fellowship. We will gather at the Teixeiras home in Huntington, Long Island for delicious food and exciting updates with our ProTeens ministry. We hope all teen families can participate. If you have any questions regarding this event, or you have a need for transportation, see Pastor Christian. Please contact Pastor Christian with your intention to attend so we can have a count for the food.

When storms of life - financial hardships, loss of a loved one, health problems, unfaithfulness, etc - threaten to pull our marriage apart, what can we do? What should we do?

During our retreat, we will focus on how God in His grace can enable us to keep our vows, fulfill our roles, carefully communicate with each other, mercifully forgive, and actually grow closer to each other and to Christ through the hard times.

Join us for a special weekend of strengthening our marriages for a lifelong journey of God-honoring partnership. You will enjoy some much-needed recreation, Bible teaching, fellowship with other couples, and time alone with your spouse. Teaching will focus on the importance of couples having a close and dynamic walk with God. The schedule will feature group sessions and question-and-answer opportunities.

After 26 years of serving the Lord at Faith Baptist, Vinny and Terri Sawyer moved to Florida in 2014. There Vinny began Macedonian Call Ministries, traveling overseas to train pastors primarily in third-world countries. In 2016, Victory Baptist Church of Port Charlotte, Florida, asked Vinny to consider becoming their senior pastor. After months of prayer, the Sawyers took on this new ministry while also continuing to make some overseas missions trips as well. God has blessed the Sawyers with 4 grown children and 13 grandchildren.
