7 Reasons Why You Should Download Our Church App

March is always a busy time for us here at First Baptist Joplin. Easter is coming up, then the end of school, and before you know it - Summer.

Summer is a season of travel, relaxation, and lots of activities. With many people taking time off from their regular routines, it can be challenging to stay connected with their church community. Fortunately, technology can help bridge this gap, and downloading our church app is an excellent way to stay connected during these busy months.

Here are 7 reasons why you should download our church app!

Stay Informed With Our Digital Bulletin:
We send out our digital bulletin every Sunday at 9am. Inside you will find a bunch of information to help you stay informed about everything happening at First Baptist Joplin.Exciting things like ways you can go deeper with Sunday’s message, stay up to date with upcoming events, and access some quick links to our online giving portal, prayer text list, and our blogs.

Get Information About Upcoming Church Events:
Our church app provides up-to-date information about all the upcoming events at the church. Whether it's a mission opportunity, community outreach event, or just an evening of fellowship amongst your church family, the app will keep you informed about all that is happening at the church. And with a click of a button you can add the event to your phone calendar and easily navigate to the location of the event as well. 

Access Sermons and Additional Resources:
Even if you're away on vacation or unable to attend church in person, you can still access our sermons through the app. You can also download sermons to your device, take notes and share a sermon with your friends easily from the app. We also have a variety of additional resources to help you continue to grow in your faith. Click on the resource tab and you will find a list of free resources, including The Bible Project, our Online Church Library, our Launch eBook, and more.

Get Instant Reminders About Our Ministries:
As life gets busy sometimes we tend to forget about important things coming up. Push Notifications are a great way to help make sure you don’t miss out on important information from the Church. On the home page of our app click “push notifications” and it will direct you to your notifications settings where you can “turn on” notifications for certain ministries.

Help Support Us:
With our constant busy lives, most of us will be in and out over the next few months. Our app makes it easy to help support the church financially by giving. You can give in under a minute and even set up a recurring gift.

Get Involved:
We have lots of different active ministries here at First Baptist Joplin. Through our app, you can find information about each ministry, see a list of our current bible studies and find ways you can serve.

Stay Connected With Your Church Family:
The app provides a way to connect with others in the church community, even when you're not physically present. You can access our online database and interact with your small groups/equip classes and connect with us on social media.

Downloading our church app is an excellent way to stay connected with the church community during these busy months. Whether you're away on vacation or unable to attend in person, the app provides a way to access sermons, stay informed about events, get involved, give, and connect with others.

Did you know we also have an app available for Apple TV and Roku devices? That’s right - in addition to our app in the Apple App Store, Google Play App Store, and Amazon App Store, we have an app you can get on your smart tv. You can access our sermons and live stream right from your TV!
