First
Baptist Church of Lincoln Gardens has long
been a church that is active in the community and
continues to serve the neighborhood in areas of
housing, employment, health care, youth development
and economic development. The church is one of the
leaders in New Jersey in the faith based community
development movement just as the church was a leader
in the 1960's in the civil rights movement. Worship,
Discipleship, Stewardship, Fellowship and Caring
Nurture are the cornerstones for conducting ministry
at First Baptist Church. |
