Matt Smith Pastor Matt Smith was ordained in 2000 and has faithfully preached the gospel ever since. He attended Addison FWB Church as a child, and then he was radically and forever changed when he accepted Jesus Christ as his savior in 1996. The Bible is his daily companion and his favorite passage of scripture is Psalm 23. He preaches according to God's word that you must be born again.

I'm New, What Should I Expect? Welcome! We know from Romans 3:23 that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. We firmly believe that the church is a hospital for sinners, not a club for saints. Because of this, the pressure's off! No need to be perfect; none of us are! We want you to make yourself at home. At Addison, we're all walking towards Jesus together. We'd love to have you join our family! What to Wear Feel free to be casual or dress up! Jeans & T-shirts and suits & dresses are all welcome, whatever makes you feel comfortable. Most of our members prefer casual. Sunday School & Kids Sunday mornings at 10:00 am, we have an adult Sunday School class and Sunday School classes for kids. Our youth classes are broken up by age group and we will make sure you know where to go! During the Service Our church services are Sunday night at 6:00 pm and Wednesday at 7:00 pm. We have singing, testimonies, and preaching. We also have a room on the side of the sanctuary with toys and chairs in case your little ones need a break! We love to have all age groups join our services. We believe this promotes full community and allows our members to know each other well and lean on each other through life's joys and trials; just like a family. We look forward to meeting you!

Our Mission Statement Addison Freewill Baptist Church is a family of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ committed to sharing the gospel, treasuring the word of God, and ministering to our community through evangelism, education, and community outreach both in person and through digital platforms. What We Believe We believe that God offers redemption and restoration to all who confess and forsake their sin, seeking His mercy and forgiveness through Jesus Christ. We Believe that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and is our ultimate source of truth. We believe the Bible to be the only inspired, trustworthy and true, without error, Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16-17). We believe there is only one God who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19). We believe Jesus Christ is God, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His death that paid for our sin through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension/rising up to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory. (John 1:1; Matthew 1:18,25; Hebrews 4:15; Hebrews 9:15-22; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; Acts 1:9-11; Hebrews 9:27-28). We believe that man was created to exist forever. He will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is hell. To be eternally in union with him is eternal life. Heaven and hell are places of eternal existence. (John 3:16; 1 John 2:25; 1 John 5:11-13; Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:15; Matthew 25:31-46).
