Welcome to Friendship-West Baptist Church
“Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware.” (Hebrews 13:2)

Whether on-line at the website, or on-site at our Church Worship Facility and Conference Center (located in Dallas, Texas), or in the community at-large, our mission is to submit ourselves in humble service to you and all others who connect with our church and our church family. We encourage you to join us in a spirit of community as reflected in our Church Vision as we strive to make anyone and everyone feel welcome, wanted, informed, and appreciated. By doing so, we are also operating in the spirit of servitude as demonstrated by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

When you come to our worship services, your experience should one where the presence of God is felt, and the power of the Holy Spirit is evident. 1st - time Worshippers, upon entering the church please come to any one of our Servant Centers located throughout the facility and let us know that you are visiting with us. You will receive a special welcome and gift from our Pastor and church family, then be escorted to special Visitors’ seating located in our Church Sanctuary. If you have any questions, any member of our Servant Center Community is available to assist you (look for those persons wearing the “Ask Me” buttons), or you can speak to one of our Connection Coaches in the Friendship-West Connection Center located in the front foyer of the church. The Connection Center serves as our church’s on-site, one-stop ministry and information resource.

Embrace the spirit of worship and receive the spirit of hospitality up-close and personal as we welcome you, "an angel incognito," to worship and fellowship with your friends in the faith at Friendship-West.

No, you don't. We encourage people to dress comfortably. For some, that may mean dressing up, but for most it simply means wearing casual clothes.  We simply ask that you dress modestly and decently. We want everyone to come, be comfortable, and enjoy learning about God together.  Come as you are!

How can I get a copy of the Sermon?
We make all the messages available on CD, immediately after worship. DVDs will be available the following Sunday. Order forms are located at the Media desk. You can order past sermons, series, & teachings by way of the same order form or online.

How does your church help those in need?
Friendship-West Baptist Church is committed to community transformation. We extend ourselves into the local community by providing a food pantry, prison outreach, and resources to our Katrina families and other families within the community, including scholarships to students and many other individuals who are in need of assistance in the community. Ultimately, our purpose for serving those in need is to bring glory to God. When people see God’s love exemplified through his people in practical ways, it proves that God’s love can prevail over selfishness and indifference. Our goal is to be a light in the community. “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16). We are a Christian community within the community that transforms the community.
