On Sunday, August 30, Linda Bausserman completed 5 years as Associate Pastor. A reception was held after church complete with lemon cake. Of course you will still see Linda at church leading spirituality groups, singing in the choir, teaching the college class, leading an occasional adult forum, serving on committees and providing spiritual direction.
Thank you Linda for the leadership you have provided and all you continue to do.

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.
