First Connect
Your First Step Toward Belonging
First Connect
You want to find your place—but visiting a new church can feel overwhelming. First Connect helps you take that next step with confidence.
At First Fairhope, we believe no one should walk alone. That’s why First Connect is designed to help you move from simply attending to truly belonging. Whether you’re new to faith, new to First, or ready to take your next step, First Connect is where you’ll learn who we are, what we believe, and how you can get involved. Through a welcoming, easy-to-follow process, we’ll help you discover your place in our church family and begin living out your faith with purpose.
Take the step—from guest to connected—and find your place at First Fairhope.
First Connect Dates:

Join the Mission. Change the World.
You want to make a difference—but sometimes it’s hard to know where to start.
At First Fairhope, we believe the local church is God’s plan to reach the world with the hope of Jesus. This is no small task, but it’s one we’ve been called to—and equipped for. Through strategic local, national, and global partnerships, including our connection with the Southern Baptist Convention, we mobilize people just like you to serve and share the gospel—from our own neighborhoods to the nations.
The time to act is now. There’s a place for you in this mission.
Find out how you can be part of what God is doing through First Fairhope.
