Blanton Family Ministry Center

Fellowship

An event space for our community.

In 2015, the First Baptist Church Marion was blessed with the opportunity to expand its mission through the construction of the Blanton Family Ministry Center. Designed as a beacon of fellowship and community engagement, the center embodies our hope to serve as the premier event location in McDowell County. From weddings to corporate meetings, and everything in between, the Blanton Center is more than just a space; it’s where our community comes together to celebrate life’s significant moments.
