WHO WE ARE:

First Baptist Church of Nanaimo was established in 1889, with 13 founding members, when Nanaimo was a coal mining town of only 4800 people.

Now a city of over 107,000 people, Nanaimo is Canada’s “least-religious metropolitan area”, according to a recent Census. A sad statistic to be sure, but a reflection of what drives and motivates the culture around us today.

We are imperfect people living in a broken world; building community together by standing on the Word of God and dwelling in the grace of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ - the Way, the Truth and the Life!

FBC is committed to generously supporting local, national and international missions, while helping people to live out their faith daily.

Our vision is for people to KNOW Christ, GROW in their love for God and others, and SHARE His gospel. Will you join us?

FBC Nanaimo is affiliated with Canadian Baptists of Western Canada.
