About our Youth Group
There are all kinds of youth groups, ones that focus more on the fun, ones that are very serious and only focus on the Bible, ones that combine fun and Biblical principles, etc. Yet, how do you know what type of church youth group will work for you?
1) It Shares Your Beliefs
First and foremost, you want to belong to a church youth group that shares the same belief system as you. Investigate youth groups within your denomination, so that you feel comfortable with what is being preached and how the Word is being presented. At FBC, our goal is for each teen to be a part of a caring group, connecting them to God by a personal relationship with Jesus, caring adults and other believers. Following Jesus' Great Commission to make disciples, we want to help them to grow in their faith and to teach them to discover the unique gifts that God has given them, so that they will honor God with their lives, by developing a personal ministry that they can give their lives away in Jesus' name.
Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
2) It is Invested in You
What does it mean that a youth group is invested in you? As Christian teens, you still have a lot of spiritual growth in front of you, and your church and youth group should be focused on helping you grow both spiritually, emotionally, and developmentally. Basically you want a youth group that offers you activities that do more than just allow you to play games. You should know your youth group has both a focus on God while also allowing you to be social and have some fun. That's what being a teenager is about...growing in all kinds of ways. You should choose a youth group that meets you where you are in your own spiritual walk and offers you a chance to grow and quite simply "Be a Teen". At FBC we believe our youth is our future and we invest heavily in them. FBC Youth is a very active youth group that participates in a wide variety of activites including study groups, camps, retreats, community services, etc.
3) It Holds Your Interest
Now, all kinds of activities and studies can be good, but only if you are going to get something out of them. Make sure that the services and activities are geared toward your own interest. This will make being a part of your church youth group more of a joy and far less of a chore. At FBC our youth love to be together and experience what life has to offer together.
So how does Franklin Baptist's youth group fit?
Pretty simple really...At FBC Youth Ministry we learn, laugh, grow, praise, love, play and serve together. We live in fellowship and respect and will hold each other accountable to God's word. Come and be a part of a great group of youth searching for their place in God's kingdom. Find your place here at FBC Youth!
About our Youth Leader
Dustin (27) and Flora Dupre (26). Children are Elouise (6), Ben (3), and Julia (1). We have been married for 7 years. We are followers of Christ, Husband and wife, and seek to be God honoring and discipling parent of our three children. I am a graduate of Piedmont International University in Winston Salem, B.S. in Health and Physical Education. Flora is a hardworking and dedicated homeschool mom.
Flora and I have been in youth ministry for about 9 years. We love being involved in teenagers lives and are grateful for the opportunity to serve at FBC. We are big fans of small groups and cherish the one on one opportunities with teens when they come. Our goal is to display sacrificial Christ-like living so the teens can see that Christianity, a life in Christ, is a real lifestyle that is preeminent in every aspect of our day. We teach that our minds are in need of daily renewal which is accomplished by meditation on God’s Word, and that the Church, the body of Christ, is a vital part of our life. Our philosophy is to used by God to disciple teens, who will in turn disciple others. Personal Note: I was born and raised in Kenner, LA and moved to NC when I was 13. We are lovers of sports, traveling, technology, and the outdoors.
We have lots of fun with special events, retreats, mission trips, volunteering in the community, and more. We would love for you to join us and see what FBC youth is all about!

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of worship service do you have?
Our worship is traditional in style. The preaching of God’s Word is the centerpiece of our worship service. We practice what is called expository preaching. This means that in most of our sermons one passage of the Bible is explained and applied. In this fashion we study through books of the Bible over a period of time, seeking all the counsel of God and digging into the difficult passages as well as those we know and love.
I am new to the church. How do I meet people?
If you are not accustomed to attending a church, meeting people can be overwhelming. The best way to get connected to others is to attend a Sunday School class. These Sunday morning communities are small groups that share similar life stages or Bible study interests. We offer classes for all ages at 10:00am.
What should we wear, what do others wear to church on Sunday mornings?
Good question. At Franklin Baptist, you will find a variety of dress styles. There are many people who like to dress up and there are many who like to be more casual in their dress. You will see nice suits all the way to jeans. So we would encourage you to dress as you are used to in other churches or what ever makes you comfortable.
How can I find the right Sunday School class?
We offer a wide variety of Sunday School classes for children, youth, and adults in all stages of life. Our preschool, children, and youth are in classes based upon their age. Adult classes are primarily based upon life stages. Sunday School Classes start at 10:00 am. We encourage you to come and we will help you find the right class for you.
Is Childcare available during worship services?
Yes, childcare is available during both Sunday morning services for infants and children up to age 2 and children's Church is available for ages 3-6 & 7-10. Our Nursery and Children's Church provides a caring and safe atmosphere for children during worship.
Do you celebrate Communion?
Yes – we celebrate communion on the last Sunday in months which contain a fifth Sunday.
I have Teens and Jr. High kids, what is there for them?
We have a very active Youth Ministry for students in Jr. and Sr. high school. Youth group meets on Sunday evenings at 6:00pm and Wednesday night at 7:00pm. [Learn More]
What is the service schedule?
Visit the Services and Events page of our site to learn more about our Sevice Schedule and what else is going on at the church.
Is membership required to participate at the church?
Wherever you are on your spiritual journey with Christ, you are welcome at Franklin Baptist Church! We do not require membership of the church in order to worship, belong to small groups, or participate in classes. However, for those who recognize God's call in their lives and wish to make an initial or ongoing commitment to follow Christ, membership in the church is an excellent way to celebrate what God is doing in our lives and live out the promise to follow Christ.
Will you pray for me if I am not a member?
ABSOLUTELY! [Contact us] in any way you need and we would be honored to pray for and/or with you.
