Our Church Founding
In 1977, Mike Hall, a young youth pastor from Curwensville, PA, heard about the need for an independent church in the city of St. Marys and believed that God would have he and his wife make some inquiries to see if there was any interest in such an endeavor. Having made contact with a few people and began to meet on Thursday evenings until they were able to rent space in a local restaurant and begin Sunday services. Pastor Hall and his family moved to St. Marys in June of 1977 and on July17th they met for their first Sunday service at the Twin Springs Diner. On October 23, 1977 the church had it’s organizational meeting and formally organized the church, signed their charter and called Pastor Hall as the first pastor of Faith Baptist Church.
The desire of FBC has ever been to proclaim the Word of God and to provide a sense of community where people can be introduced to a God of grace and be led to follow the Lord Jesus Christ.
