Ixonia has a mix of cultures, though our area is mostly populated by Whites and Hispanics. Our area includes diverse age groups, though our church contains many elders, seniors and long living foundational families. We have a few young people but would love to grow this more.

About First Baptist Ixonia - Formerly Oconomowoc, WI
The First Baptist Church of Ixonia has its roots in the First Baptist Church of Oconomowoc. FBC-O was founded in 1866 meeting in a number of places over the years, in 1912 the congregation built a beautiful building across from the City Beach in Oconomowoc on Highway 16.
On April 2, 2008, that church building was destroyed by a natural gas explosion. The church building was a total loss, along with 2 houses that the church owned.
The members of FBC-O purchased the old Ixonia Town Hall in the fall of 2008. Reborn as the First Baptist Church of Ixonia, the congregation continues to minister to one another through worship and to a needy world through mission. The Ixonia Food Pantry is the church's primary community mission focus. We also have started a Mill Mission for our farmers who are hauling their grain to market in the fall. We provide either cookies, candy bars, chips and water or coffee. The best part a friendly smile and a thank you! We seek to share God's love through serving the community.
The uniqueness of the congregation is that our history serves as a foundation for the future rather than an anchor to the past. We are enriched by our historic roots, but our commitment is to touch the lives of people of all ages with hope and God's love.
Our worship style is a mixture of contemporary and traditional.
