FWBBC Bulletin Archives
In August 1952, ten years after its founding, Free Will Baptist Bible College (now Welch College) began publishing a monthly newsletter detailing milestones, news, events, and updates involving the school. Named “Free Will Baptist Bible College Bulletin,” the newsletter continued until 2004, when all denominational publications unified into a single publication: ONE Magazine. Archives of the bulletin, along with other periodicals, are available from the Historical Commission at https://fwbhistory.com/.

Tithe on Your Estate At the Foundation, we have a goal for every Free Will Baptist family to tithe on their estate through a future gift and turn it into an endowment to help fully fund all national ministries. If every Free Will Baptist family tithed on their estate, it would produce a future endowment pool of $1.8 BILLION and a future annual earning of $90 MILLION! You can help us reach this goal, so email or call us to learn more: foundation@nafwb.org or 877-336-7575.
