Join Us for Worship

To God be the Glory!

At First Providence Baptist Church, we invite you to enrich your Sunday experience that fosters community and spiritual growth.

Join us at 8:30 am for engaging Sunday School classes that nurture deep discussions and encourage fellowship among members of all ages. Following this enriching time of learning, our heartwarming Morning Worship begins at 9:45 am, where we gather to lift our voices in praise and reflect on the teachings of Christ.

Led by our pastor, Reverend Hayward Dock, Jr. we create a welcoming atmosphere that allows every individual to feel valued and inspired, making each Sunday a celebration of faith, family, and love.
