Missions

We are on mission in our local community!
We take seriously the call of Jesus to GO! Our focus in Missions is to reach the world with the good news of Jesus. This begins at home, right here in Union County and goes to the world. Explore where we are serving people locally, nationally, and internationally and find your place to plug in!

“Go ye therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
- Matthew 28:19

Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Drive

January 21 and 28 | 8am - 12pm

FBCIT Parking Lot

Did you know in North Carolina, approximately 28% of children struggle with where their next meal will come from? Sadly, many of the families of these children are not able to make enough money to provide nutritional meals for their entire family. Because our schools provide breakfast and lunch for low income families, these children are guaranteed at least two meals that will satisfy their nutritional needs. But what happens when the children go home for the weekend?

FBCIT partners with Food For Families, a ministry that provides food to families who need help. Food for Families sends a bag of food home for the weekend. This is where you can help. Beginning Sunday, January 21 and ending January 28, we will have our Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Drive. Please bring in your jars of peanut butter and boxes of oatmeal, place them in a bag and set them at the trunk of your car. We will come by and pick them up during the services. Let’s spread the love. Help us help others.

Celebrate Recovery

Thursdays | 6:30pm

Sossamon Chapel

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered, 12-step program for anyone with any hurt, habit, or hang-up. Free childcare is available if requested by noon on Wednesday.

Go Local

We are on mission in our local community.
Home is where the light should shine the brightest! Through #ForUnionCounty, FBCIT comes alongside many people in our community to assist them with needs. Our heart is to love and lead everyone we meet into a personal relationship with Jesus.

Go National

We are on mission in our nation!
Partnering with the North American Mission Board has allowed FBCIT to support over 100 new Church Plants from Massachusetts to Oregon. We are actively involved with SBC Disaster Relief work, providing training for volunteers, supplies, and volunteer work teams whenever a natural disaster comes. Reach Appalachia is our mission plan to assist the people of Appalachia by bringing them the love, peace, and strength that comes only from Jesus.

Go Global

We are on mission around the world!
FBCIT is focused on four areas of the world. Our goal in all four is to love and lead people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

We also support teams that arise within our FBCIT church family who are burdened for other areas of the world including Guatemala, Haiti, Nepal, India, and others! We are involved long term with Wycliff Bible Translators in translating the Bible into the Yansi language. The Yansi are a people group in northwest Democratic Republic of Congo.
