First Baptist Church of Philadelphia

Comment on Facebook

The purpose of this Church is to love the Lord our God with all our heart, and with all our mind, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. To that end we will publicly worship God as truly spirit-filled members of the community that have been freed from bondage through acceptance of God's grace through Jesus Christ. We seek to share this "Good News" with all those who have need of its message and will strive to provide continual growth and nurturing for all who have joined our fellowship.
