Roger Williams gathered the First Baptist Church in America in 1638 on the bedrock of religious liberty, with its principles of soul freedom and the separation of church and state. Together, we continue our ministry of welcome and liberation.
This congregation honors its Baptist heritage. Many of our members are lifelong Baptists and others come from varied denominational and religious backgrounds. We welcome all people of every age, race, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, cultural background, socio-economic status, mental or physical ability, marital status, and any other distinctions of society. We are diverse people united in Christ. We remain a safe harbor.

We are collecting granola bars, sanitizing wipes, water bottles, cheese/peanut butter crackers, and socks to place into blessing bags that you can hand to homeless people you meet on your travels.
If you'd like to donate supplies or pick up a couple bags to hand out, stop by the office.
