Sunday school classes start at 9:45 am for all ages, and the worship service begins at 11 am. Worship typically goes to about 12:15 pm, followed by a fellowship time where refreshments are provided.

The streets at the side and the back of the church are open for parking. There is also plenty of parking available just down Main street at the Stoneham Public Library lot.

Nursery care is provided for ages infant through 3 years old during the worship service. Kids between 4 and 9 years old worship with the entire congregation for the first ~20 minutes of the service, and are then invited to head downstairs to Memorial Hall.

You will find a wide variety of clothing choices among the people of First Baptist, and our recommendation for visitors is to dress comfortably. Far most importantly, come with an expectation to meet God and be transformed by His power!

Prayer is extremely important in the life of the church, and we include a designated time for Pastor led prayer each week during worship. At the start of our prayer time each week, the Pastor will ask the congregation if there are any concerns or celebrations that we can lift up to God together. Typically, there will be two or three brief items that will be offered in response. Also, at the end of our prayer time each week, we recite the Lord’s prayer together in unison.

On the first Sunday of each month, we join together to celebrate communion. We invite and encourage anyone that trusts in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior to join us in the taking of communion. (Matthew 26:26-28)

After the Pastors lead the congregation in prayer, deacons walk around the sanctuary and offer the bread to the congregation. After the bread is served, the Pastor invites us to eat it together. This is followed by the deacons serving the cup int he same manner. After the cup is served to all, the Pastor invited us to drink it together.
