2026

The theme of this year's Pioneer Days was '70s Disco.'  Florida Bible Church embraced the theme enthusiastically with a parade float containing musicians from our church.  We also had a tent in the park from where we handed out gift bags, Bibles, bottled water and we sold hot dogs and chips.  It was a great day!  We even won a prize for our parade entry - Most Spirited!

A member of the church invited the congregation to her home overlooking Lemon Bay to watch the community fireworks and share this celebration together.  We had a wonderful time!

We are so blessed to have a team from Reach Global, the EFCA's disaster relief group, helping us to repair and renovate our fellowship hall.  Teams come from all over the US and work with us for a week or so at a time.  The work is underway and we are very excited to see the progress so far.  

The ladies have a monthly luncheon.  Each one is hosted by a different lady who decides where we will be going.  We always have a wonderful time!

We hold regular community cookouts at the church which are lots of fun and an opportunity to meet those in the neighborhood and share with them what we do at Florida Bible Church.

Our Easter Sunrise Service at Indian Mound Park overlooking beautiful Lemon Bay is a special time seeing the sun rise and celebrating the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ!

We hold an Easter Egg Hunt for the children in the community on the Saturday before Easter which is great fun!

Pregnancy Solutions is one of our ministry partners and we always have a team participate in the fundraising walk each year in Venice.  Not only is this an opportunity to help the organization raise vital funds for their work but also we get to have a lot of fun and the scenery is beautiful!

One of the ministries we support is Young Life, a ministry to middle and high school children.  Their annual fundraising gala is held at the Boca Grande Beach Club which is in an amazingly beautiful setting.  

We held our first yard sale in many years in February 2026 and the money raised was to purchase new audio visual equipment for the church.  It was really fun and we raised the funds needed!
