About this church
First Baptist Church in Safford, Arizona, describes itself as a Bible-teaching church in the Gila Valley. Sunday School for all ages meets at 9:30 a.m., and worship follows at 10:45 a.m. The church is on South 7th Avenue across from Safford Middle School. On Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. it holds a Prayer and Prophecy gathering. An American Sign Language interpreter contact is listed on the site for those who need that service, and sermons are posted online for those who want to listen before visiting.
Founded in 1899 in what was then the Lone Star Settlement, the congregation moved to Safford and built its first building in 1904. The church's ministries include Sunday school for all ages, a children's church, and a youth group, so families can attend together. Its stated emphasis is on fellowship, worship, and study of the Bible, and on introducing others to Jesus. A plan-a-visit page and a what-to-expect page are provided for first-time guests. The church office can be reached at 928-428-0643, and callers are asked to leave a message if no one answers. Mail goes to a post office box.
