We believe that before we go to another country to do God's work, there is a lot for us to do here in Stockton. We have many on-going projects ranging from serving the homeless a hot breakfast to partnering with local churches for Serve Our Stockton Day. This is a great way to plug-in and to help others; there is no ministry training necessary and the time commitment is very manageable.

Thanksgiving Outreach
Partnering with various Elementary Schools in Stockton we put on a Thanksgiving meal. This entire event is prepared and served by FBC members. This outreach provides a Thanksgiving meal to families that are served in the cafeterias of schools and shelters in the Stockton area. We provide activities for the children like games and crafts, a clothing drive and every family that attends receives a "love box" when they depart containing non-perishable food staples. Interested in joining up for this years event? Email us at missions@fbcstockton.org.
Serve Our Stockon
This one day event brings together churches throughout Stockton to serve Stockton. Service projects, car washes, clothing drives, canned food drives are only a few of the events that take place during this outreach. The goal is always to serve our city in the name of Christ.
