Assessment

First Baptist Euless has rebranded as Cross City Church - First Euless Campus. Pastor John Meador. SBTC (Southern Baptists of Texas Convention) affiliated, which is theologically conservative. Two worship services. Address differs from original listing (1000 Airport Freeway vs 200 Westpark Way Blvd). Verify men's ministry and doctrinal positions. SBTC affiliation is a positive indicator.
