Let Us Introduce Ourselves

We are a loving, accepting community of evangelical Christians.  We seek to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and attempt to follow His will in our lives.  We love to share the blessings of God with others, as he gives us opportunity.  We believe that God has placed us in the heart of a great city and since our start in 1888 we have attempted to be a vibrant part of this city.   We are a diverse family, enriched by people who come from many different backgrounds, cultures and age groups.  Our activities are intended to meet the needs of both young and young at heart wherever they may live.

We are available to you for prayer, for counseling, or for any other service we might provide in Christ's name and for His glory.

Our Sanctuary

First Baptist Church, Calgary, first opened its doors in 1888-part of Alberta's rich heritage!  Music and the arts have always played a key role in defining the character and vitaliry of the worshiping community at First Baptist Church.  The amber-toned stained glass windows imported from Germany were part of the origianl construction of the sanctuary.  A three-manual, 42-stop pipe organ was built and installed by the Casavant Freres Company of St. Hyacynthe, Quebec in 1912 and underwent further enhancements in 1965 and 1992.  Currently the 900-seat acoustically rich heritage sancturay supports an Adult Sanctuary Choir, two Handbell Choirs, a Children's Choir, and a Contemporary Worship Team.
