    First Baptist Church in Carthage Texas I have visited quite a few times .I have attended weddings , baby showers, church plays and lately it was for a funeral . I do not attend regular services there; just as a visitor. The church is big has a large congregation and I have known people that were members there that have been going for many years and love the church family and their kindness. There are young and old. First Baptist is involved in the community. There are extra curricular activities for the kids they have a large gym and dining room. If you are looking for a large church home I would recommend First Baptist.

    Love this church, been a member since 1997. Our pastor is THE best in the world. God truly blessed this church when He sent Dr. Allen Tilley to us. And our choir director, David Yarbrough is awesome. He makes sure everyone, young and seniors, hear the music they know and like.
