Reaching all of Nocatee
with all of Jesus for all of life.

A MESSAGE FROM
PASTOR SPENCER

First Baptist Church Jacksonville at Nocatee has an extraordinary opportunity.

We are a growing church full of growing people in one of the fastest growing communities in the country. 

In response to this opportunity, the Nocatee Campus will take the bold step of growing our facility to reach the communities of Nocatee and Saint Johns County for decades to come. We believe that God wants every person in our church to participate in this opportunity for ministry in our community. 

Explore the information below to learn more about the exciting plans for our campus to grow.
