Our New Campus
Frederica Baptist continues developing a beautiful 13-acre campus on Marsh’s Edge Lane that will serve as an effective, multi-generational ministry and discipling tool on northern St. Simons Island, where the Word of God is preached. God has blessed our congregation with this land which fulfills the original desire in the hearts of this church family for a Baptist presence on the north end of the island.
Through the generous giving of members and friends of Frederica, funds from the Built Together Capital Campaign (2016 – early 2019) provided for the clearing of land and the adding of fill dirt to prepare the site for the new building. Architects have designed plans for the first phase of the campus and construction has nearly been completed.

History of Frederica Baptist

After meeting in temporary spaces at Epworth By the Sea and at Oglethorpe Point Elementary School, Frederica Baptist purchased the currently facility at 1700 Frederica Road in 2003 as a home for the church ministries until the vision for a north St. Simons facility is realized. The 1700 Frederica Road space provides areas for worship, fellowship, small group Bible studies, children’s programs, youth programs, adult programs, music programs, and much more. Still, the heart of Frederica Baptist members is to build a more effective tool for reaching our community with the Gospel and teaching them as they grow in their relationship with Jesus, our Savior.
In addition to reaching our local community, the Frederica family is especially full of love and devotion for those across the world. A strong missions emphasis has been at the core of Frederica Baptist since the early days.
After praying and searching for the new, permanent site, the church members were graciously given 13 acres on Marshes Edge Lane. What an amazing blessing from our great God and we thank Him for His answer to our prayers.
During the difficult economic times between 2007 and 2012, Frederica Baptist successfully continued its ministries and programs at the 1700 Frederica Road building. The church family was united in its belief that God was telling them to wait on pursuing a new building.
