First Baptist Peddie Memorial Church

About this church

First Baptist Peddie Memorial Church gathers at 10:30 a.m. Sunday at 572 Broad Street in downtown Newark, with current worship also available online and through YouTube. Children's Sunday School meets from 9:30 to 10:15 a.m. from September through June, with age-based classes beginning in the nursery. Free Sunday parking is in the commercial lot at 22 Fulton Street across from the church.

Peddie identifies as an international, multiethnic Baptist congregation and treats worship as the center from which its ministries flow. Its service design moves through Gathering, Word, Response, and Sending, combining ancient, traditional, and contemporary elements while inviting active participation. Ministries are intended to help people become known and cared for, build relationships, grow as disciples, and live their faith at home, school, and work. Youth meet at 7 p.m. on the second and fourth Fridays for worship and fellowship, and small-group resources extend connection beyond Sunday. A first-time household can arrive by 9:30 for children's learning or come closer to 10:30 for the main service. The official video and bulletin archives make the worship style unusually easy to preview, while the Fulton Street lot removes the uncertainty of finding Sunday parking near a prominent downtown church.
