Faith Baptist Church is a multicultural, English-speaking, Independent Baptist Church in eMalahleni/Witbank, South Africa and Philippians 1:27 has become the vision statement of our church: Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, that whether or not I come and see you, I may hear of your activities, that you are standing fast in one spirit, with one mind, striving together for the faith of the gospel.
Based on this, FBC continues to be ministers of the Good News in our community. While encouraging each other and building each other up - in unity and as the Body of Christ. To find out more about what we believe, view our Statement of Faith or have a look at our Church Life Gallery page.

Fellowship is seen as a biblical command that motivates our social gatherings, discussions, the way we encourage, as well as relationship-building among our diverse membership.

Financial Support
Our Mission Account is kept separate from our General Account. All the funds given into the Missions Account goes towards supporting missionaries. We are a missions-minded church and support various church-planting efforts all over South Africa.
Our General Account is for everything else, such as keeping the lights and water on to helping all of our ministries operate.
Our Finance Committee does a great job of planning out a responsible, realistic, and faithful budget every year (that is accepted/rejected by our members by vote), based entirely on the financial support we receive. If you have ever given - thank you!
