Each Sunday we gather to worship God, coming from all around the greater Dayton area. We are diverse in many ways, but here we declare and celebrate that we are one in Christ. And so, it is in his name that we invite you to come and worship with us!

We engage in a variety of ministries to and with our neighbors—near and far—from urban gardening and home/neighborhood improvement projects here in Dayton to a mission partnership with Baptists in El Salvador involving food security and access to education. Christ has called us to a life of service, and we invite you to answer that call, too, by getting involved.

Children and youth of all ages at First Baptist are welcomed and loved, and we value their insights and their gifts. They join with the whole church in being taught and nurtured in Christian faith through worship, Bible study, service and fellowship.

We welcome any and all to join us as we “strive to be steadfast and joyful Christians continually seeking to understand and proclaim God’s unfolding Word.” We invite you to come and be a part of this community, as we learn what it means to follow Christ.
