Welcome students and parents!

Youth Ministry //

We’re glad you’re interested in learning more about the youth and student ministry at First Baptist Church Decatur! The youth group at FBCD is comprised of middle and high school students from all across Decatur who want to make friends, learn about what it means to follow Jesus in today’s world, and more importantly, have fun together.

Our students attend schools in the Decatur area including such as Decatur High School and Grady High School, and we’re honestly the most laid-back and welcoming bunch!

Through meaningful conversations, service projects, group outings (Atlanta baseball games, bowling parties, city-wide scavenger hunts, virtual game nights, etc.), and mission trips, our youth learn more about embracing their identity in Christ and how their passions can help change the world.

If you’re a parent looking for a healthy faith community, then First Baptist is a wonderful place for you and your teens. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me using the contact form below!

Youth Sunday School Class

On Sunday mornings, our youth gather on the third floor of the Sanctuary building in their dedicated space to study the Bible together. We don’t believe in surface-level Christianity either, so we courageously stare the hard questions in the face and discuss what it means to live out the Gospel in our schools, city, nation, and world.

Youth Nights

Join us in the Activities Center from 6:00-8:00 pm on select Sundays for dinner, Bible study, an open gym, games, and a study space. Friends are welcome, too! Reach out to Zach Mason (zmason@fbcdecatur.com) with questions, and we'll see you there!
