Welcome to the web site of First Baptist Church of Columbus. If this is your first time to visit, we hope you'll find the site helpful in getting acquainted with First Baptist. Once you've gotten acquainted, we hope you'll worship with us soon in order to meet us personally. We're a friendly bunch of people eager to know you and fellowship with you.

Our doors are open to all, regardless of where one is on his or her spiritual journey. Together we're an active, involved, and growing group of believers and seekers. And our desire is to reach out with God's love to all people and help them find and follow Jesus Christ.

We're glad you found us and we look forward to your personal visit soon.
