Our Situation
FBCTV is a church representing over 20 denominations, so we are very diverse. Although there is no age minimum to live in Tellico Village (www.tellicovillage.org), it is mostly a retirement community, so our congregation is older, generally well-accomplished, and mostly retired. We have no youth program and a small children’s program, usually offered to meet the needs of grandchildren who might be visiting their family. However, it is important to note that we have a committed congregation which is well-equipped and eager to play a role in the work that God is doing in Tellico Village and around the world as we await the soon return of Jesus. There is no “retired” when it comes to following Jesus!
Presently, our pastoral team is comprised of a Lead Pastor, who is primarily responsible for vision, leadership, and preaching, and an Associate Pastor of Discipleship and Ministries, who is primarily responsible for discipleship, the execution of ministries, and congregational care. However, both positions are being shaped as we partner together, and we generally work together in many areas of pastoral responsibilities. We also have a Leadership Council, comprised of the leaders of our various committees, which provides leadership to the direction of the church.
Our worship is a blend of contemporary and traditional. We have a choir, instrumentalists, and a worship team who lead us in worship on a weekly basis. Historically, our church has been more traditional, but we are changing because we are committed to reaching the next generation of 50- and 60-year-olds who are moving into our community as well as maximizing our ability to reach the areas outside of our village.
We hope that you will visit our website (www.fbctv.org) to learn more about us. We are in the process of revisioning this website so that it better captures our mission, ministries, convictions, and passions.
