Welcome to Fairfield Baptist Church

Welcome

Fairfield Baptist Church is a welcoming space where individuals can encounter Jesus, engage in life-giving community, and feel completely embraced. We are committed to fostering an environment where authentic encounters with Christ occur, enabling people to discover their gifts and use them for God's glory. Whether you choose to join us in person or virtually, we invite you to be part of our Sunday worship experience!

Who We Are

Our church, established in 1885, owes its foundation to the Carol, Daniel, Durden, and Mapp families. The inaugural pastor, Reverend A.D. Freeman, undertook the significant responsibility of leading the congregation. The choice of the name "FAIRFIELD" stemmed from the remarkably fair field surrounding the initial church site.
Today, Fairfield stands as a radiant beacon in the community, illuminating the love of Christ. Positioned like a church on a hill, it serves as an unhidden source of light, sharing the transformative message of faith.
