First B Friends

WHAT TO EXPECT

At First Blairsville, our mission is to help all people find and follow Jesus. The heart of First B Friends is for individuals with special needs and their families to feel included and encouraged in the body of Christ. We offer various levels of support so those impacted by disability are given opportunities to hear the gospel, participate in church and grow in faith. 

First B Friends provides a place where your child, teenager, or adult with special needs can be a part of the First Blairsville family, participate in worship and learn about Christ at their comfort level. We have a team of trained Buddies that are available to come alongside your family member to include them in Spiritual growth with their peers in the classroom setting or to participate in worship. There are sensory rooms throughout our campus to help individuals regulate in order to more fully engage in learning about Christ’s love for us.

Our hope is that, through First B Friends, your whole family feels cared for and engaged in discipleship. We look forward to getting to know you and growing in friendship together!
