Florida Baptist College

Florida Baptist College Florida Baptist College exists to train young men and women to carry out the Great Commission through a local church ministry.

In 2003, God burdened the heart of Pastor Bruce Turner of West Gate Baptist Church to start a Bible college. In 2004, West Gate purchased ten acres of land contiguous to its campus. The additional property provided the land necessary for a new auditorium, much-needed office space for the church, and classroom space for Florida Baptist College. With the support of West Gate Baptist Church, FBC offi

cially opened its doors in August of 2005. Since that time, FBC has graduated choice servants of the Lord who are now serving Him in local, Independent, Bible-believing Baptist churches and ministries across America. In August of 2010, Pastor Turner stepped down from the pastorate of West Gate Baptist Church and presidency of Florida Baptist College. Pastor George Pirt was called to be the Pastor and President.

So proud of FBC alumni, Roland Bourque, pastor of Foundation Baptist Church in Tulsa, OK. He and his sweet wife, Tess, are celebrating their 5th anniversary of planting this church. God Is doing miraculous things through this family!

Pastor and Mrs Pirt had the privilege of being with them during their celebration last week! At Florida Baptist College, we are invested in our students far beyond their time here and look to encourage them throughout their ministry.

So thankful for the leadership and work of both Pastors!

So thankful to have had the opportunity to be at Faith Baptist Church in Gulfport, MS for the Deep South Youth Conference! Florida Baptist College was represented well by one of our alumni, Benjamin McFadden. After graduating in May, Benjamin is now on staff at Faith, serving in his home church.

FBC was able to meet new people and make connections with many prospective students. Already looking forward to next year!

P.S. Team Verceles fell just short of the corn-hole championship with a second place finish!
