Winnsboro, TX
First Baptist Church of Winnsboro, Texas was founded in 1872 and has a long history of fruitful ministry. Our previous pastor, who served from 2006 to 2023, led us to adopt a missional model of ministry locally and around the world. He left in December 2023 to pursue a new ministry opportunity, leaving the pastoral position vacant. Approximately 250-300 adults and children attend Bible study and worship each week with the expectation of knowing Jesus more, holding others accountable for becoming like Him, and influencing the culture around them. Over the past 17 years our church mission model has been 3D – Discover, Develop, Deliver. We discover God through regular worship and bible study with our church family. We develop ourselves and others by regularly participating in discipleship training and small group bible study. And we deliver purpose and hope to those in our realm of influence locally and around the world. The church is looking for our next pastor to build upon FBC Winnsboro’s rich ministry heritage while expanding our missional impact in the city of Winnsboro and beyond.
The city of Winnsboro is situated in beautiful Northeast Texas, approximately 100 miles east of Dallas and 60 miles north of Tyler. Winnsboro is a quaint, small community of approximately 3,500 citizens, made up of generational families as well as newcomers from near and far. Winnsboro is a community that loves its ‘Friday Night Lights,’ Autumn Trails, Lady Raiders basketball, local restaurants, area lakes, the growing Center for the Arts, and the Farmers’ Market.
