about us

When you visit First Baptist you will notice that we are a church of older adults, middle age adults, young adults, teens and children.  Our ministry is multi-generational and our worship and activities reflect that mix.  So we are not one thing, but a ministry of many threads because of the diverse population we serve. 
 
We are committed to ministry in the city.  Our members can found at our neighborhood food pantry and soup kitchen, in our gym working with boys and our computer lab helping seniors become computer literate.  We are committed to prison ministry preaching to those who are incarcerated and helping their families to cope with the imprisonment of a loved one.
 
Our 2011 Church Theme is, "For the Glory of God, by God's Power and Do It God's Way", (Psalm 100:2).  2011 is the 178th Birthday of First Baptist.  A complete listing of our celebration events will be posted on the website.
