Local Mission Focus
In an effort to make an impact on our community, First Baptist Clemson will focus quarterly on a local organization and mission need through education, service opportunities, and donations. We hope you can be a part of these mission endeavors as we work together to 'love God and love our neighbor' (Luke 10:27).
Family Promise/Homelessness
Our support of this ministry last throughout the year. One week each quarter, First Baptist Clemson host families who are working toward independence with Family Promise. Volunteers from FBC and St. Andrews Catholic Church coordinate together to provide food, lodging, and activities during the week.

Helping Hands/Children
Children First
Children First developed this outreach program as a ministry to children currently in safe houses under DSS protection. These children are typically taken away from parents while courts decide their fate. Our goal is simple: reach out with a written expression of care once per week, recognize important events in their life, and take part in special activities planned for them at FBCC.
Adoptive Grandparents
The Adoptive Grandparents hosted an end of school year pool party for their Helping Hands grandchild. Many of these smiling faces have been grandparents since the program began in June of 2017 and have mentored several children. The kids and adults had a great time together getting to know each other and eating hamburgers. Contact Linda White or Stephanie Moore if you are interested in the program.
Clemson Community Care/ Hunger
During the months of July - September we focus our mission efforts on Clemson Community Care and Hunger issues. WWe have a canned food drive for CCC, support World Hunger through our bread sale fundraiser, and work in a local soup kitchen.
Thought the year, our church supports hunger relief through our Second Helping Sundays. The Second Sunday of each month is Second Helpings Sunday! he following items are needed by Clemson Community Care: canned pasta, dried beans, canned tomatoes, mixed beans, tomato sauce and tomato paste, pork and beans, and peanut butter. We always have a need for baby diapers, wipes, and toiletries. Let us all join in Second Sunday Helpings and continue feeding hungry neighbors right here in Clemson!
