The purpose of our church is to glorify God through worship, evangelism, edification and equipping of believers until He comes again. We exist to fulfill His Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20),that is, to spread the message of the scriptures to local areas and to countries all over the world.

      Welcome to the website of First Filipino Baptist Church. We hope you find this site a useful and informative guide. Our passion is to love and serve Jesus Christ together and help others to do the same. FFBC is committed to upholding Jesus Christ as our center and norm in all aspects of congregational life, ministry, and administration. We believe that we are called to be a Christ-centered church that addresses the needs of the total person through worship, life-transforming Christian education, progressive and timely ministries and partnership in world-wide missions.

      While we are known as an Asian-American church, First Filipino Baptist Church is a caring congregation that welcomes anyone and everyone to attend our worship services regardless of race, color or language. Our worship services, Bible studies and Sunday school classes are all in English. We invite you to discover the joy that we share when we come together to worship God in spirit and in truth. We also have a special Tagalog Sunday school class for seniors. Lunch fellowship is provided every Sunday right after Sunday school. Why not come and join us in person one Sunday? It will be my pleasure to greet you personally and join you at the meal table. Once you've visited, we hope that you'll choose First Filipino Baptist Church to be your home church.

      FFBC is located in Hudson county across the Hudson River from Manhattan and is only seven miles from Staten Island, NY. Feel free to contact us if we can be of any help to you. Please use the links below to find out more about us.

      As you browse our newly redesigned web site, I pray that you will learn more about the love and abundant life that can be found in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

In His service,
Pastor Ulysses Marino
