Welcome to the website of The First Baptist Church of
Medford MA. Visitors, please note that we are now on our summer schedule. During the period June 15 - August 31, we meet for worship at 9:30 a.m. Sunday School will resume on September 14.
It is our hope that this site will enhance our ability to
be agents of God’s love, mercy, and grace in the city of Medford
and throughout the world. We hope, too, that the site will effectively
promote this vital spiritual community.
We invite you
to discover and share in this vital spiritual community. Its richness
and strength springs naturally from its diversity. Among our members,
we have folks from many branches of the Christian, and even
non-Christian, heritage. In addition to the diversity of its spiritual heritages, the church is a multi-national
community. Nomenclature and other “pigeon-holing” systems
are not helpful means of identity for this, or any, diverse and vital
spiritual community. It may be said of us that we do take the life of
faith seriously, but that we do not take ourselves too seriously.
Worship with us.
Participation in worship enriches, and at the same time is a most
useful time and place to discover the dynamics of a community of faith.
It is in worship amongst the community of faith that the process of
spiritual formation is enhanced.
Historically speaking, First Baptist Church was formally
founded in 1841. Its actual origins predate this event by over 20
years. The church is related to the American Baptist Churches of
Massachusetts and the American Baptist Churches USA.

Holy Communion.
We customarily celebrate Holy Communion on the first Sunday of each
month and on a number of other special occasions during the year. Our
Deacons provide home communion to any who desire to participate but are
unable to attend church.
