Our hope here, as the family at First Baptist Church of Keenesburg, CO, is that all visitors feel at home and welcome to worship the LORD JEHOVAH.
"Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation." (Isaiah 12:2 KJV)
Our hope is to enable the Holy Spirit to move in the hearts of all who hear the gospel message of peace and respond to His calling to repent and call on the name of Jesus for salvation. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13 KJV)
Our multiple family Bible classes allow us to grow closer to Lord through the practical application of God's Word and prayer. "But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever. Amen." (II Peter 3:18 KJV)
We would like to welcome you to learn more about what we believe and why we give God the most honor, glory and respect we are able. "Rooted and built up in him, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with (Colossians 2:7 KJV)thanksgiving."
Our goals are to be obedient to the "Great Commission" Christ gave His disciples moments before ascending to Heaven to prepare us a home. "...All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" (Matthew 28:18-20 KJV)
Our belief is that God called and ordained Pastor "Mac" to further God's Kingdom through the ministries at First Baptist Church of Keenesburg, CO. "And I will give you pastors according to my heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding." (Jeremiah 3:14 KJV)
As we have been blessed with wonderful facilities, we have three furnaces that are deemed beyond there lifespan and "burning dirty" by the gas company and several local plumbers. We are humbly asking for help from all who are willing to give donations of your time, talents, materials and/or funds.
Our primary need is to replace the Sanctuary Furnace that is at the end of its lifespan and continues to malfunction and replace the old underground ducting has already been abandoned. The cost of that furnace and ducting is estimated at approximately $8,000 .00 including materials and labor.
Our secondary need is to replace two Fellowship Hall and Upper Level Classroom furnaces that are at the end of their lifespan and leaks gas when in operation. Both of these furnaces have been estimated at $3,500.00 including materials and labor totaling $7,000.00.
We are pleased to comply with the local Fire Department who has availed several public safety items that required our immediate attention in our older facility. We have Installed new Emergency Exit Signs and "Bug Eye" Emergency Lighting with backup batteries. We also upgrade the Emergency Exits with Panic Door Hardware and Handicap Closures on Fire Exit doors..
We are still awaiting the final report on the Maximum Capacity to determine the number of stalls and the size needed for each of the Lady's and Gentlemen's ADA Compliant Restrooms. Either way, the amenities are outdated beyond their lifespans and in need of replacement. We are building funds to build new ADA Restrooms which have been estimated at approximately $9,800.00 including materials and labor.
We have already begun restoration and renovations to show our love for the Lord with obedience to His commandments and covenants in preparing this campus bestowed upon us and for all who come as a house of prayer and worship to our God. Isaiah 56:7 KJV "Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people."
Please be in prayer and ask how God can use you to support the ministries that reaches from the corners of our communities to the ends of the globe. 2 Corinthians 9:7 KJV "Every man as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or out of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver."
