FBC Holland exists to draw all people closer to Jesus, beginning here in Holland.
Local Missions:
- Monthly Holland Community Food Pantry – This Holland Community program serves food to those in need the third Thursday of each month. Members of the church pack bags of food items from staples to meats to comfort foods. The resources for this ministry are made available through the generosity of our church members and others in the community that have a heart for this program and the people it serves.
- School Backpack Ministry – This Holland Community program is operated through Holland Independent School District. Families are able to sign up their children to receive a weekly backpack filled with easy to prepare food items for an entire weekend. Our members fill these backpacks during the school year to send them home on Friday. The resources for this ministry are made available through the generosity of our members and other community sources.
- Kid’s Helping Kids Christmas Ministry – Kids Helping Kids provides gifts and food during the Christmas season to children who live in Holland, Texas. It began in 2005, when a group of students from First Baptist Holland wanted to provide toys to children in the community. The students decided to utilize the Baptist Women Jesus Pal food boxes by adding toys for distribution. The families are gifted with boxes of food, toys and clothes – including a pair of new shoes for each child, which is packed and delivered by volunteers.
- Tennis Shoe Fund – This ministry provides shoes to children at Holland ISD that need them throughout the year by working with the school to identify the needs.
