Our History

150 Years of ministry
Friendship Bible Church Was

Founded in 1863

Friendship Bible Church has been a pillar of the Egg Harbor Township community since it was founded in 1863. Friendship has always been more than just the name of our fellowship, it describes who we are in Christ.  First and foremost, we desire to be known as friends of God, loyal to Him and His Word! Second, we desire to live out the name Friendship by showing Christian hospitality to those who come to worship with us.

Since 1863, Friendship has desired to live out our purpose of glorifying God by cooperating with Him as He builds His Church through evangelism and the building up of true believers in Christ. Our mission has always been to share Christ at home and around the world. Our hope is to grow spiritually as joyful disciples of Christ – conformed to His image. Our vision is that we would be a church of the Bible, receiving its teachings and living them out before God and others.

Recently, Friendship Bible Church celebrated their first 150 years of ministry. Click the link to view a short slide show that gives an overview of the first 150 years of the church.
