First Baptist participates in a wide variety of missions through financial support, prayer, and participation. While some of our efforts support missions that originate within First Baptist, many support individuals that have gone forth from our congregation or local ministries that provide a special service around the world.
Mission Statement
Our goal is to link members of First Baptist Church with mission opportunities in Woodbridge and around the world in an effort to spread Christ’s love through prayer, volunteer efforts, and with financial contributions.

Action in the Community Through Service (ACTS) United Way/CFC # 8001
Founded by local churches in 1969, ACTS works for the alleviation of human suffering in Prince William County in direct response to the charge of our Lord to clothe the naked, feed the hungry and welcome the stranger. Current ministries provided by ACTS are day care centers, emergency financial assistance, a food pantry, transitional housing, the Help Line, and Turning Points, a shelter for abused families. Parishioners are invited to join ACTS and are also asked to bring food to the church periodically during the year for donation to the ACTS food pantry. ACTS, which touches the lives of 30,000 people each year, provides concerned Christians with a direct link to those in need and a vehicle for a wide variety of meaningful volunteer service.
Fellowship of Christian Athletes
The vision of FCA is to see the world impacted for Jesus Christ through the influence of athletes and coaches. Students in area middle and high schools lead their own ‘huddles’ learning leadership skills and how to implement accountability in their day-to-day lives.

Foreign Missions
New Bethany Baptist Church, Moscow, Russia
New Bethany's pastor, Sergey, and his wife, Nadia, are passionate about shepherding New Bethany's believers, sharing the Gospel with non-believers, and pursuing missions throughout Russia. Our partnership with New Bethany provides opportunities to support our brothers and sisters in Christ through prayer, mission exchanges, and financial support. New Bethany's long-term ability to rent a community center for Sunday worship is uncertain, and restricted access limits opportunities to minister and grow. Pray that God will provide New Bethany with a permanent place to worship.
