What to Expect

Carey 1st Baptist Church is a church that has a rich history that spans over 100 years in Childress County. 

Our church was established in the once thriving little community of Carey, just outside of Childress, Texas.  The original church building was destroyed by fire just after the turn of the century and was re-built into the large modern multi-purpose facility that stands today as one of the only reminders of the little community that is now an extended part of the city of Childress with a city address on loop 328 just six miles north of town off of US 287.

Carey 1st is a church on mission to reach our area with the good news of Jesus Christ.  We are a fellowship of like-minded believers that welcomes persons of all races and socioeconomic background.  We assemble weekly on Sundays, Wednesdays and other days of the week for special programs and fellowship.  Worshiping our Lord and Savior and bringing glory to him is at the forefront of all we do as we fulfill our mission of LOVING GOD, LOVING PEOPLE and MAKIING DISCIPLES of Jesus.

Our worship experience on Sunday mornings at 10:45 is contemporary driven with music, media and inspiring messages from the Word of God.  Our corporate worship time is enhanced with special lighting and HD screens for use with media and our time of singing and worshiping with our praise team.  There is no certain dress-code for worship.   While our services are conducted in a casual surrounding and atmosphere, there is nothing casual about our love and devotion to our Lord or his church. 

Life Groups (Sunday School) are available for the whole family and there are special times of fellowship and fun with small groups as well as the whole church family on a regular basis.  A well equipped nursery with trained and loving individuals is available for our families with newborns and small children on Sunday mornings and as needed at other times.
