Dear First Church Family,

Thank you for coming together to ensure that our church family will continue to securely inhabit this beautiful house of worship that the Lord has blessed us to occupy for nearly 35 years! We thank our many supporters, throughout this nation who supported us and contributed to the victory that we will continue to celebrate for the next 93 years! As we move toward our 93^rd anniversary, there is exciting work that the Lord has set before us in the new decade. Click here to read more.

First Baptist Institutional Church of Detroit Michigan visits the state capital for the Governor's 3rd Annual Faith-Based and Community Resource Conference. The Governor, President Obama's Faith-Based Initiative Representatives and other community organizers discuss how to partner to meet the growing needs of the citizens...( PART 1 )

First Baptist Institutional Church is located at 17101 West Seven Mile Road in Detroit, Michigan, pastored by Howard B.M. Fauntroy III. First Church, the Lord has blessed us and has some very important work in store for us for 2009 and beyond. In 2009 we will focus first on church growth.

We will invite young professionals from all walks of life and cultures to join our church family so that we(with the power of the Lord) may more effectively minister to the needs that people in our community, city and state will undoubtedly confront in the year ahead. We must have a strong and capable church body to effectively address the issues of future generations the same way our maturing members did so lovingly for us! Inviting young professionals to join our community of faith is the first order of business for 2009.

Secondly, as I already shared with the congregation, the Lord has led us to formally address three major issues that drastically impact our metropolitan community in the year ahead: Poverty, Aids and Literacy (PAL). Detroit has been ranked as the most poverty stricken city in the United States. Over 30 percent of our citizens living in the city of Detroit are poverty stricken. The greatest killer of young African-American people between the ages of 24-44 is HIV/AIDS. Over 47% of the people living in the city of Detroit are illiterate. First Church these are devastating and mind boggling statistics. We cannot hide and pretend that these issues will disappear if we ignore them. We must be proactive and actively address and minister to those affected by these issues so that the at-risk members of our community know that GOD is alive and well, and in the Saving business! Services are held every Sunday at 10:00am. Audio and video from services can be heard by clicking here.
