Welcome to First Baptist Church of Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Located in a region of wondrous natural beauty, our congregation believes the Bible, seeks to win others to faith in Christ, and strives to minister to the spiritual needs of people.

Hopefully this web page will help acquaint you with our church family. You will find highlighted our numerous ministries to preschoolers, children, youth, and adults of all ages. One of our priorities this year involves reaching out to young families. We also have strong programs for Internationals, those in special education, single adults, and senior citizens.

We work to obey Christ’s Great Commission of worldwide missions and evangelism. We want to do so in the spirit of His Great Commandment that we love God supremely and love our neighbors as ourselves. If we can help you find Christ as your Savior or grow as a Christian, please let us know.

Should you choose to visit or reside in this area, I would invite you to let this church family become your spiritual home. That God will bless you richly is my prayer.

Howard L. Gates, Ph.D.
