Richmond's First Baptist Church is a unique congregation where people from diverse cultural, ethnic, economic and religious backgrounds join together to put God’s love in action. All find a home in our church with opportunities for spiritual growth, fellowship, and service.

Our people celebrate and draw strength from our diversity, which finds its unity in the Lord Jesus Christ. We embrace an international perspective with more than ten different languages spoken among our members. Men and women serve as deacons and as ordained staff in leading services and preaching sermons.

Jim Somerville: "Imagine yourself waking up in a hospital room. You come to slowly. You see the bright fluorescent lights overhead, the pale green curtain hanging to your right, an IV tube taped to your left wrist. 'Where am I?' you ask. 'You’re in the hospital,' [the nurse] says, matter-of-factly. You were dead.'"
