Our Associate Pastor of Discipleship, Evans Newell, would love to hear from you to give more information about our groups.

Parking lot entrance: 48 Meeting Street
Sanctuary: 61 Church Street
Our parking lot is located at 48 Meeting Street. Upon arrival, one of our parking greeters will assist you and guide you to our Welcome Center. Please note that our parking greeters may ask for your keys so they can help others get in and out of the parking lot between Bible study and worship.
Our lot can get full rather quickly on Sunday morning. You may also find on-street public parking within walking distance on Church, Tradd, East Bay, and Broad Streets (please be aware of residential driveways), or at The Battery and White Point Gardens. These spots are free on Sundays.
There are also other parking garages that are not a far walk from the sanctuary: East Bay Garage at 25 Prioleau Street
East Bay Parking Lot at 19 S Adgers Wharf
70 Queen Street Garage
149 East Bay Street Garage
Drop-off and Accessible Ramp
For drop-off or guests who need closer access, we suggest dropping off in front of the Sanctuary at 61 Church Street. There is an accessible ramp located in front of the Sanctuary.
Check-in at the Welcome Center!
We ask parents to register children in our Welcome Center. We offer classes for all ages during Sunday School and we have a beautiful new nursery for infants and toddlers with a trained and caring staff.
Preschool Praise Time During Worship
During worship, children ages 3 - completed K5 will learn and worship in Preschool Praise Time. Please bring your child with you to worship and meet our leaders at a designated time during the worship service.
There’s no specific dress code at First Baptist. You are welcome to dress however you’re most comfortable! You’ll see everything from “Sunday best” to casual among our adults.
Go to the "Get Connected" menu for all ages and group opportunities on Sundays, Wednesday nights and other weekdays! We also have Wednesday Night Supper (September - May) prior to Wednesday Bible studies, Awana, Children's Choirs, Sanctuary Choir rehearsal and more!
First-time guests to our Wednesday Night Supper receive a complimentary meal! Dinners are at 5 pm each Wednesday (September - May). Please RSVP!
