First Baptist Church

The First Baptist Church supports its multi-cultural community with Gospel-centric worship services, prayer and service programs. The church is a New Reform denomination. According to Chaplain Dave Hanson, Pastor James Tippins is devoted to his congregation and is considered a "techno-pastor" who manages the church's website and Facebook page. The First Baptist Church serves its large Afghan population with events like the Afghan Family Thanksgiving Dinner. The church also offers Spanish-language Bible study classes. Chaplain Hanson says about 15% of the church's funds are used to support missionary programs around the world. Neighbors are welcome to use the church's basketball courts and fields, says Chaplain Hanson.
