First Baptist Church of Moses Lake, WA

Senior Pastor Andy and Laura Grenier

Pastor Andy has been the pastor of First Baptist since January of 1997. Laura is our church secretary and serves in several ministries in the church. Pastor makes this observation about his time here at First Baptist.

“Our congregation is like many in that we take seriously the process of spiritual growth in order to be like Christ. It has been my privilege and honor to serve with a group of people who understand the importance of seeing people come to Christ, growing in their faith and then teaching others. We love one another from the nursery children on up to grandma and grandpa and that love has been such a blessing over the years. 2 Timothy 2:2 is a common theme that runs through the mission and purpose for our church. “And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”

Associate Pastor Sean and Cassandra Sallis

Sean and Cassandra met at Word of Life Bible Institute in 2001 and were attracted to each by their shared passion for youth ministry. They were married in 2004 and went on to complete their education at Tennessee Temple University in 2007. They have been blessed with Josiah, an energetic three year old, who “absolutely loves being around the teens.”

Camp Jonah

We took 15 teens and six leaders to Camp Jonah in Trout Lake, WA. for a week of camp. We did everything from the high ropes course to climbing into a cave and playing in the mud pit. The weather and the setting were beautiful and we really enjoyed being surrounded by God's creation for a few days.

The most important part of the week was hearing God's Word on a daily basis and being challenged to have transformed worship, service and faith. Joe Castenada was our speaker and he used the lives of Josiah, David and the woman at the well to challenge us to be "room changers". We need to so have the aroma of Christ around us that people are drawn to Him by seeing us. We had three teens out of our group trust Christ to be their Savior and many other decisions were made as well.

Many thanks to the staff at Camp Jonah for their warm and helpful spirit and for being such a great part of the week. Plan to join us next year at the same time for another life changing week at camp.

Summer Bash

Our teens spent three days with another youth group from Olympia and had a great time. They did everything from playing table games to playing paintball to riding ATV's. They also spent time studying the Bible and singing. It was a great way to make new friends. Thanks to all who helped out with food, driving the boat, cleaning up and supervising.
