Since 1893, First Baptist Church has been community of faith where people are not only introduced to Jesus, but also seek to grow in their Christian life. As we unabashedly worship in the Black Church tradition, we provide community, love, and aim to provide relevant help to those in need. Through spiritual maturity, dedication to service, and a clear understanding of our purpose, vision, and mission; people come seeking a significant and practical relationship with Jesus. By honoring the past, adapting to the present, and embracing the future, First Baptist accepts the call to be a place where people not only come to have church, but to be the church.
