Who we are
The heritage of First Baptist Church began over 150 years ago. The first service was held on September 10th, 1864 in the town’s schoolhouse. Boise itself had a population of just 500 and was little more than a village of simple cabins, tents and shanties.
Growing with the town of Boise, First Baptist Church soon required a larger facility. In 1892 the church moved to Tenth and Jefferson Streets and completed a new building. This impressive structure served the church and its needs until 1948. After fifty six years at Tenth and Jefferson the church moved to its present location on the corner of Thirteenth and Washington.
But the church has impacted more than just the Boise skyline with its bell tower and steeple. It has also had an impact on the community at large. First Baptist has sponsored four churches in this area and given support to many others. Mission projects both at home and abroad have consistently been supported by the church.
The heritage of First Baptist Church is rich and full. But the ultimate value of this ministry cannot be measured by buildings or numbers. Rather, it’s the lives that have been touched and changed through the love of the Savior for over one hundred and forty years.

"Yes, Lord"
"Yes, Lord! Jesus, I give all of this to you. Jesus," I just started out a dream for my neighbourhood. "I didn't ask you to make me a messenger to the world. I just wanted to love my neighbours. But Jesus, here it is. Here's my future, here's my loneliness, here are all the pressures, here are the criticism", and I gave Him everything. And I told Him to take me again and I would try to make "Yes, Lord" the continuing motto of my life..
