Our Mission

First Baptist Church exists to make disciples of Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit for the Glory of God and the good of our community.


Our Mission comes directly from the Great Commission:

"Go therefore and make disciples..." Matthew 28:19-20


Jesus also said in John 7:37-38, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me as the Scripture has said, Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water."


So, the invitation to "Come to the River" is two-fold: Join us at church by the river and Come to Jesus! He is the Living Water!

Our  Logo

The "S" in our logo is uniquely shaped.  

This is because its shape is reflective of the stretch

of the Tennessee River that Savannah sits on. 


Our logo communicates our identity in two ways, it proclaims our church name and reveals our location. Our logo was specifically designed this way to be a reminder that God has sovereignly placed First Baptist where He did for a reason, to accomplish the Great Commission for His Glory and the good of the community our church is a part of.
