About this church

First Baptist Church of Lincoln Gardens is a Baptist congregation at 771 Somerset Street in Somerset, New Jersey. Sunday worship is held at 10:00 a.m. and can be watched live online or on YouTube. The church describes itself as rooted in tradition and growing in innovation, and a bookstore in the narthex carries Bibles, devotionals, and books on parenting and finances. Child dedications take place at the 10 a.m. service on the fourth Sunday of each month, and the church offers pastoral care, prayer requests, visitation, bereavement support, and premarital counseling for couples who want an ordained minister to officiate a wedding.

Ministries include Faith Formation and Christian Education with Sunday School and small groups, a culinary ministry that prepares meals for seniors and veterans, a women's ministry, a veterans ministry that meets the second Thursday of the month. Small groups of 12 to 15 people meet weekly in homes for ten-week sessions in fall, winter, and spring, reflecting on the Sunday sermon. Youth ages 13 to 18 are invited to Friday Night Live at the youth center on select Fridays, and Freedom School teaches on the Bible and Black history and culture. Virtual support gatherings include a bereavement circle and a caregiver support group. The office is open Tuesday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Confirm times on the website.
