Lead Pastor

Over the past 105 years, First Baptist Church of Hull has served the communities of Hull,
Daisetta, the surrounding areas. We are a Bible-believing church that loves the Lord and wants
to be a beacon to our communities.

Over the past ten years, membership has remained steady, ranging from 239 to 251. Active
members range in age from 2 to 85. The majority of those are young couples and working
people, with several being over 65 and retired. Our leadership team is made of off all
volunteers.

We currently hold Sunday School services with an average attendance of 10 – 12, Sunday
morning worship with an average attendance of 25
-30, and Wednesday night Prayer Meeting
with an average attendance of 6 – 8. A Nursery is provided during Sunday morning worship, and
our children meet on Wednesday nights for combined activities with two other local Baptist
churches.

Our facilities consist of three buildings. The current sanctuary was built in 1957, with the
educational wing being added in 1969. The Family Life Center was begun in 2012 and completed
in 2014. The 3-bedroom brick parsonage, located across the street from the church, was built in
. Following Hurricane Harvey, all of our buildings were forced to undergo major
repairs. The educational wing is still under construction.

Over the past ten years, total receipts have averaged $92,720, with $77,000 being undesignated.
Total Missions giving has averaged $3,574.

Above all, we should be a people who love God, love each other, and love the community we are
called to serve.
We want to see people of all ages using and developing their gifts and fully participating in the
life of the church and its mission.
We want to be a church that is growing and moving forward with God.
