Rooted in History, Focused on Christ
Salem First Baptist Church was established on February 13, 1887. The church has met in several locations in Salem before building at our current campus at 552 Highway 62 East.
A lot has changed since 1887, but our desire to reach people with the good news of the Gospel remains unchanging in a very changing world. As Southern Baptists, we hold to the Baptist Faith & Message 2000.
