“FBC Atwood offers a wonderful worship experience that is rarely found in a town of Atwood’s size. Over the last several years, God has drawn a number of families with children as well as folks from all walks of life to our family. The gospel community which God is forming here is special. True discipleship is a key focal point as we grow and cultivate the culture. In short, FBC Atwood is a very accepting body of believers where anyone can become a part of a true gospel community and experience spiritual growth.”
