First Baptist Church of Pawtucket

About this church

First Baptist Church of Pawtucket worships Sundays at 10:00 a.m. and maintains a current video and audio archive for people who want to experience a service remotely. From September through mid-June, children and youth have classes during worship except on first Sundays, when the congregation celebrates Communion together. Infant and toddler care can be arranged in advance. An adult Bible study meets Tuesdays at 7:00 p.m. during fall, winter, and spring. The church describes its community as spanning multiple cultures and generations.

Organized on August 27, 1805, First Baptist has more than two centuries of Pawtucket history and helped give rise to other nearby congregations. Its present outreach remains practical: a food pantry serves more than 130 households in a typical month, opening one Saturday morning each month outside the summer season. Fellowship activities and learning opportunities supplement worship without obscuring that local service. For a visitor, the congregation offers a rare combination of documented local roots, current service recordings, school-year formation for several ages, intergenerational Communion, and a food ministry operating at meaningful neighborhood scale.
