Evangelism
Christian Foundation Courses
We offer Christian Foundation Courses designed to help people explore the core truths of the Christian faith in a clear, welcoming, and pressure-free way.
Through Alpha and Christianity Explored, you are invited to ask questions, think deeply, and discover what the Bible says about Jesus, grace, and life with God. These resources can be used in a group setting or individually at your own pace from home, making them suitable whether you are new to Christianity, returning to faith, or wanting to strengthen your foundations.
Our desire is to provide a safe and supportive environment where faith can be explored honestly and thoughtfully, with Scripture at the centre. Please use the Contact Us page to reach out and register to either of these courses.
Emergency Food Pantry
We provide emergency food and hygienic supplies to people in the area that have unexpectedly run out of basic necessities. Our emergency food pantry exists to provide the gap needed to help before they can acquire a more solid and permanent solution to their problems through bigger charities and organisations than ourselves. Pick up times for food parcels are Wednesdays 4-6pm, Thursdays 9-11am and Sundays 9-11am.
Fairhaven Nursing Home Chapel Service
On the 2nd Tuesday of each month, the Pastor with a group of volunteers from Fraser Coast Baptist Church visit Fairhaven down the road and minister to the folk there by providing a worship service consisting of singing, prayer, communion and special items (during school terms) from Bayside Christian College.
Drug & Alcohol Family Support
We recognise the deep pain, confusion, and exhaustion that often comes with loving someone affected by drug or alcohol addiction. At Fraser Coast Baptist Church, we are grateful to offer confidential, compassionate counselling support for individuals and families walking this difficult road. You don’t have to carry this alone.
Our desire is to provide a safe, respectful space where you can be heard, supported, and encouraged as we walk alongside you with care, wisdom, and hope. Please reach out if you need support!
Religious Instruction
Religious Instruction (RI) would not happen if it weren’t for the generosity of the local church. Who else would pay for the curriculum? And praise God, giving to support RI in Hervey Bay is tax-deductible. Would you please pray about giving towards this significant ministry in our town! See below for account details if God is leading you to give.
Fraser Coast Baptist Church supports the ministry of Religious Instruction 100%. We understand the significance it has in our community and the potential it has to change children’s lives. Pastor Tim is the secretary of Hervey Bay’s local RI Committee, whom are on the journey of finding the right person to fill the vacancy of a paid RI Coordinator. Unfortunately, Hervey Bay has a shortage of RI teachers. Currently, there are more students wishing to participate in RI than there are teachers, who are willing to take a class.
Therefore, we encourage you to pray about whether God wants you to become an RI Teacher. There are currently over 600 students, who have elected to participate in RI, but cannot because there are not enough volunteers available to teach. This is a sad reality! Maybe there’s one person in our congregation, whom God wants to teach RI.
