Our Story

"First Baptist Church of Gahanna was established on February 11, 1963 for the purpose of holding regular devotional and public worship; developing Christian fellowship through personal growth in grace and knowledge of Christ among its members for the glorification of His precious name; proclaiming the gospel message and urging its personal acceptance by those without the Savior, Jesus Christ; and cooperating heartily by prayer, gifts, and service in carrying out the Great Commission of the Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:15 and Acts 1:8"
- Articles of Incorporation, 1963 - 

FBCG continues to be focused on the Ministry of the Word, through preaching and teaching, the praising of our Lord and Savior through song, and the stewardship of both treasure and talent for the service of others.

Since the church is a body of believers who are God's workmanship created for good works, we believe it is important to continually pursue emerging ministry opportunities both internal and external.  To date we have established partnerships with several likeminded agencies who desire to see people helped and ministered to in the name of Christ.

As we move forward, we will continue this strategy of Kingdom Cooperation in order to become a ministry hub which is able to help meet needs beyond our own inherent capacities.
