Fourteenth Avenue Baptist Church

Loved it had a set up reception for one of my wife's aunt's after funeral there dinner

Small congregation felt right at home.

Biblical Teaching, no sugarcoating, soul-changing truth preached. God is moving in this congregation through heartfelt fellowship, worship, discipleship, and outreach.

I have been at 14th Ave. Baptist for about 14 months and have known many of the people of the church for about 4 years. I have been involved in about a dozen churches in my 35 years of life and have never been as happy in one as I am now. The authentic love, God-centered teaching, and true humility set this church apart. If God keeps me in this church for the rest of my life, that would be fine by me. We have three kids: 10, 6 & almost 2. They enjoy the church very much themselves which is huge for my wife and I as parents.

One of my deep desires has been to worship in a church that looks like heaven, so it has been my joy to see this church grow more and more diverse in recent years, both ethnically and generationally (as well as socio-economically). Not everything is perfectly polished, but God seems to be blessing this church, not only with good gifts, but with the gift-giver himself. May God grant us the wisdom and strength to continue to honor him and enjoy his manifest presence.

No church is a good fit for everyone, but if you are searching for a church, I do believe FABC is worth checking out!

14th Ave Baptist Church is a family-like, warm and sometimes delightfully quirky place to belong. It has a casual, come as you are environment where people of all ethniciticies, socio-economic, ages and backgrounds are welcomed and encouraged in their relationship with God. Whether you are new to the church scene or have been a regular attender for many years, I believe you will feel at home here.

Pastor Steve Belden delivers well prepared, thoughtful and Bible-central sermons. The music is a combination of hymns and contemporary worship.

There is caring childcare available for birth-Kinders during the service and for birth-6th grade during the Small Group session.

There is a free "breakfast bar" available with coffee/tea/water, snacks and treats in between sessions.

There is also free, easy access parking and free wifi.
