Spreading God's Word
SINCE 1974
Pastor Gary Byers planted Fredericktowne Baptist Church on the Palm Sunday, 1974.
He dreamed of building a church with a simple goal; reaching those far from Christ. With the help of people committed to seeing that dream fulfilled, the church is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year!

Our Beliefs
Fredericktowne Baptist Church (FBC) is a community of born again believers in Jesus Christ who desire to become more like their risen Lord and Savior. We desire to glorify God by obeying him and his commission to the church. Therefore we place a great emphasis on preaching the life-changing news of Jesus Christ and invite men and women to come and follow him in complete obedience.
At our church, you will hear the word “gospel” repeatedly because it is the most important truth that we can know and experience. The gospel is not merely a message that needs to be shared with non-Christians, but also with Christians. It is not something that mature Christians move on from, but rather something that they move deeper into.
Our Mission
Our mission is to seek to glorify God by making disciples of Jesus Christ through preaching the gospel, encouraging believers toward spiritual maturity and equipping the saints for ministry.
The Constitution of FBC includes this statement of our Scriptural beliefs. This doctrinal statement comprises those teachings that we consider to be the fundamental foundation of our faith.
