Pray for First Baptist Church Davenport in Davenport, Florida
First Baptist Church in Davenport, Florida, is located in Polk County, which is the fastest-growing county in Florida. Since 1925, FBCD has been actively sharing the gospel with its neighbors and seeking ways to serve those in need. The increase in new homes around the church has provided ample opportunities for the church to reach out and share Christ with the community. During the upcoming days, they are considering starting ESL classes and a Hispanic worship service to better serve those in their area.
Pastor Brent Smith has been leading FBCD since 2023. He is excited to see the Davenport area growing and believes that their church is uniquely positioned for such a time as this. This fall, they are partnering with the elementary school beside the church for a mentoring program. They are also planning to go on mission trips this year and are seeking the Lord for direction.
Two areas for which Pastor Brent has requested our prayers are their church’s music and youth ministries. He is seeking the Lord’s wisdom on how to help these two areas grow for the glory of Christ.
Join us in praying for these specific needs:
- Pray for Godly wisdom in knowing how to be more effective in their community to reach souls for Christ.
- Pray for wisdom in developing their ministry to the Hispanic community.
- Pray for strength to do the work of the ministry.
- Pray for FBCD to have opportunities for outreach.
