For many years, First Baptist Church Sevierville has been involved with reaching out to the community for Christ through service-oriented ministries. Their members and ministries have embodied that mission every day. Even so, they believed that the Lord was calling them to greater things!
Over the past couple of years, God has given them a vision for how to best fulfill their mission of helping people move from their point of need to hope in Christ. The vision involved developing the Sevierville Ministry Village (SMV).
The SMV looks for ways to spread the gospel to the community through services like meeting basic needs such as food, clothing, showers, laundry, and understanding the needs for housing and immediate shelter. Our desire is to facilitate restoration and spiritual growth in Jesus' name.Â
In order to fulfill our vision, we have a lot of work to do... not only in determining what services are most needed but also by equipping volunteers to provide those needs. We hope you will pray for and join us in their journey. We are excited to keep you informed of the incredible ways the Lord is using our ministries to reach those who are struggling in Sevier County.
