Additional Info About First Baptist Church
|
First Baptist Church is evangelical, reformed, and strongly missional. We ordinarily practice expository preaching and have a big focus on discipleship and growth in Christ. Our worship is blended worship, and our tradition is Baptist (our Baptist roots date back to 1823 in the Pittsfield area). There are believers from all different denominational backgrounds here, who have found the Christ-centered and cross-focused nature of our worship to be comfortable to them, although they are not from a Baptist background. Visitors often comment about the warm and friendly atmosphere here. We have all different styles of music. There are both the older hymns and more contemporary praise songs. We have a choir and a bell choir, but also a praise team with guitars, bass guitars, keyboards, drums, and hand drums. Kids are welcome in the service; we also have nursery and junior church services available for the little ones. Usually there is a children_s message as part of our service. We also have wheelchair access to our building. Holy Communion is celebrated regularly, and is an important part of our worship.
