At First Baptist Pelham, our Mission Statement clearly defines our purpose:
 

First Baptist Pelham is a Christ-centered faith family that exists to make disciples for global impact by enjoying God through worship and prayer; by equipping disciples through teaching and serving; and engaging the world through missions and evangelism. Therefore, we are a Christ-centered, multigenerational congregation that stands on the authority of the Scripture. Our Worship Style engages multiple generations with a contemporary/blended sound. We have an exciting Children’s Ministry, engaging Student Ministry, and active Adult Ministry. Our beliefs affirm the 2000 Baptist Faith and Message.
