Social Media

- Why use social media for Church?

Social media is a powerful ministry tool that allows us to extend the love and message of Christ beyond the church walls. At Gilroy's First Baptist Church, we believe it’s an opportunity to connect with people right where they are—on their phones and online. Through our posts, live streams, and stories, we share encouraging messages, testimonies, and resources that can inspire faith and spark deeper spiritual reflection. Social media helps us reach those who may not yet attend church, giving them a glimpse of God's love and offering a path to get involved in a supportive, faith-filled community.

Community

- How is it helpful to our community?

Social media is vital for our church here in Gilroy because it allows us to stay connected with both our congregation and the broader community in a meaningful way. With many people spending time online, it's an opportunity to reach those who might not walk through our doors initially but are still searching for hope, encouragement, or community. For Gilroy's First Baptist Church, social media enables us to share the love of Jesus, provide updates on events and ministries, and offer spiritual support throughout the week. It helps us build relationships and extend our mission to serve, no matter where people are.

Personal Growth

- How can social media enhance your personal walk with God?

Social media provides an accessible way to stay engaged in your faith journey throughout the week. At Gilroy’s First Baptist Church, we use our platforms to share daily devotionals, uplifting messages, and spiritual resources that can help deepen your relationship with Jesus. Whether you're looking for a Bible verse to encourage you or a sermon to reflect on, our social media channels offer content that supports your personal growth in faith and keeps you spiritually nourished, even outside of Sunday services.
