Who We Are

First Baptist Church in East Providence is a place of worship that strives to honor God by reaching people with His truth and His love. Reaching people means leading others to God’s gift of eternal life, which is available to all people through His Son, Jesus Christ.

The Bible tells us that Jesus took the sins of the world upon Himself so that we, God’s lost children, could know and be reconciled with our perfect and loving Creator.

As we share God’s Word, we want to help people know God, know His plan for their lives and enable them to share their faith with others. We believe that faith leads to a growing relationship with God, who fills an emptiness in us that can be filled by nothing else. As we grow in this relationship, we become more aware of God’s love, His holiness and His will. Knowing God compels us to share our faith so that others may be forgiven of their sins and have the gift of eternal life.
