Roger Williams gathered the First Baptist Church in America in 1638 on the bedrock of religious liberty, with its principles of soul freedom and the separation of church and state. Together, we continue our ministry of welcome and liberation.
This congregation honors its Baptist heritage. Many of our members are lifelong Baptists and others come from varied denominational and religious backgrounds. We welcome all people of every age, race, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, cultural background, socio-economic status, mental or physical ability, marital status, and any other distinctions of society. We are diverse people united in Christ. We remain a safe harbor.

Nearly 1/3 of households in Rhode Island experience food insecurity. You can make a difference by bringing nonperishable food to church each Sunday. We will deliver it to Better Lives RI.
Garlic has been planted for harvesting in mid-summer. Some of the beds have a cover crop of barley. And there's still kale, arugula and a selection of herbs. (The kale gets better with a little cold!)
We are collecting granola bars, sanitizing wipes, water bottles, cheese/peanut butter crackers, and socks to place into blessing bags that you can hand to homeless people you meet on your travels.
If you'd like to donate supplies or pick up a couple bags to hand out, stop by the office.
